The Chemical Biology Consortium Sweden (CBCS) is a national research infrastructure in Sweden funded by the Swedish Research Council, Science for Life Laboratory, and the host universities. We provide world-leading expertise in the field of chemical biology to academic groups across Sweden in a collaborative project model. Our mission is to explore complex biology through the development and application of small molecule tools. To do this we provide support in assay development, small molecule screening, enabling chemistry, as well as access to small-molecule libraries. Additionally, we have recently expanded our services to include disease and compound profiling using Cell Painting, support for functional precision medicine projects, screening of infectious pathogens in biosafety level 2 and 3 laboratories, and automated patch clamp profiling/screening.

We are looking for projects in these areas to support starting late 2022/early 2023. All applications are ranked by our external project review committee based on scientific potential and feasibility. Prioritized projects receive subsidized support. We require a demonstration of technical feasibility thus we require that you contact CBCS well in advance of the final deadline. See www.cbcs.se for your nearest point of contact.

A digital information meeting about this call will be held August 15, 2022 at 11.30–12.15. Register here for the information meeting: Calls for new project support in chemical biology and drug discovery - SciLifeLab
