Aim of Curios-IT Print

Curios-IT is a brand-new cheminformatics company. We build tools to extract chemical and biological knowledge from your data. These tools can help you speed up your drug design projects.

Our current focus lies on the computational extraction of interesting substructures. AweSuM, the Awesome Substructure Miner, was built for this purpose and is being extended and optmised. AweSuM employs a method called substructure mining to find only interesting substructures. 

This site will contain various details about key substructures, the substructure mining method, our charitable goals, and more. So, act on your curiosity by browsing this site and contacting us!
