The high-throughput search described in this paper takes advantage of multiple levels of parallelism, from coarse to fine-grained. Roughly speaking, fine-grained parallelism is exploited by allocating one core (of which modern graphics hardware have many; and their number is exponentially growing over the years) to one or more virtual neurons, while coarse-scale parallelism is achieved by alloc...

The principle of this method was to screen the pharmacological activity of six prepared polyphyto formulations by using high throughput screening method for their nootropic action. The study was performed in three stages using one, two and three animals, respectively in a group. Test formulations were given p.o daily at the dose of 50 and 100 mg/kg body weight. The test formulations were compar...

mouse medulloblastomas, which are cerebel-lar tumors that, in humans, occur primarily between 5 and 10 years of age 7. Because the tumors spread through the CNS, treatment consists of surgical resection, radiation to the entire brain and spine, and chemotherapy and, as a consequence, leaves survivors with debili-tating learning and neuroendocrine hormonal deficiencies. A potential implication o...

HTS remains at the core of the drug discovery process, and so it is critical to design and implement HTS assays in a comprehensive fashion involving scientists from the disciplines of biology, chemistry, engineering, and informatics. This requires careful consideration of many options and variables, starting with the choice of screening strategy and ending with the discovery of lead compounds. ...
