Hear all about Open Targets with David Ochoa on Sano Genetics podcast.

This is a mathematics joke involving potatoes and calculus. (Circulating widely on the Web.)

David Ochoa gives a very insightful & articulate overview of the challenges & key questions we are trying to answer Open Targets in target discovery & prioritisation to ultimately help make safer & more effective treatments for patients - listen now!

☃️ The winter Open Targets platform release comes with a new target prioritisation view🚦 aimed at understanding the risks of progressing targets through the discovery pipeline. Next year will be big! 🧵
