CDD for Academics

Key benefits for academic researchers

Maintain research continuity despite constant turnover of graduate students and post-docs.
Quickly train new graduate students and post-docs to use the database.
Capture and organize fragmented data.
Easily set-up and manage collaborations with other research groups.
Avoid the need to purchase and maintain hardware and software, avoid the need to pay an IT specialist to support users, and avoid the need to worry about the security and integrity of your research data.
Exploit state-of-the-art database software and support at an affordable price.
Protect the commercial value inherent in your research data, so promising approaches can be patented and commercialized, while also selectively sharing with others.

Capture and organize fragmented data.
Keep pace with high-throughput experiments so data sets don’t pile up unanalyzed.
Avoid performing redundant research work.
Maintain project continuity when group members leave.
Ensure data integrity and availability by archiving to CDD’s safe and secure repository.
Exploit sophisticated cheminformatics and bioinformatics tools without the need for specialized informatics training.
Extract the greatest value from preclinical data.
Mine your own data together with open-access data through a single, intuitive interface.
Integrate dispersed efforts: test Group A's compounds with Group B's models against Group C's new target.
Control your data: keep your data completely private, exchange some data confidentially with colleagues you specify, or share openly with the scientific community; specify which data sets to share, with whom to share them, and when they can be shared.
