“Quantity has a quality all of its own” Original source unknown The quote with which I’ve opened the post on the OpenADMET initiative is often attributed to Joseph Stalin and some suggest that he might have been referring to the T-34. While the safety and comfort of crews were not priorities for Soviet tank designers the T-34 was a better tank than the quote might be taken to imply. In particular,…

I’ll open the post on the OpenBind initiative with photos from my visit last year to Korea which was timed to coincide with the cherry blossoms (this meant that the customary April Fools post was from Seoul). Things did not start well on the day that I took these photos (having lined up the first shot for the day it became abundantly clear that the camera’s battery was still being charged at the…

## [Grand Challenges for Predictive Modeling in Small Molecule Drug Discovery](http://fbdd-lit.blogspot.com/2026/05/grand-challenges-for-predictive.html)

_2026-05-27 · Peter Kenny · Molecular Design_

In this blog post I’ll be taking a look at C2026 (Grand Challenges for Predictive Modeling in Small Molecule Drug Discovery) which has been published as a ChemXriv preprint. A well-organized collection of grand challenges can indeed help focus scientific research effort on the most important challenges and I consider C2026 to be welcome relief from the view that we can solve all problems with…

I'll open the post on drug design objectives with photos from a most enjoyable and informative visit to the Australian Synchrotron early in 2010 when I was helping with fragment library design at CSIRO. I’ve been meaning for ages to do a post like this and was finally goaded into action when I recently looked at two short videos from interviews with Sir Demis Hassabis, founder of Google DeepMind…

_2026-04-21 · Peter Kenny · Molecular Design_

To start the post I'll share a photo that I took in 2012 of incense sticks at the Truc Lam pagoda near Da Lat. Not long after taking this photo I lost a lens cap (although thankfully not the lens) riding a luge through a forest and would later visit a cricket farm (this was particularly welcome because I had developed a taste for fried crickets during a visit to Cambodia in 2005). I’ll be…

## [PAINS and Prejudice](http://fbdd-lit.blogspot.com/2026/04/pains-and-prejudice.html)

_2026-04-01 · Peter Kenny · Molecular Design_

\<\< previous || next \>\> PAINS ( p an a ssay in terference compound s ) filters have exerted a hold over the drug discovery community ever since the BH2010 study appeared over 15 years ago. Initially I didn’t take much notice of PAINS filters and, in any case, I’d already moved on from analysis of high-throughput screening (HTS) output by that point (I might add ‘thankfully’ because looking at too…

## [Hit to Lead best practice?](http://fbdd-lit.blogspot.com/2026/01/hit-to-lead-best-practice.html)

_2025-12-31 · Peter Kenny · Molecular Design_

I'm now in Trinidad and I'll share a 180° panorama from Paramin where I walk for exercise. This district in Trinidad's Northern Range is renowned for its agriculture and the most excellent produce is grown in 'gardens' on steep hillsides. My walk would take about two and a quarter hours if I just walked but it usually takes rather longer because I like to take photos and often stop on the ridge to…

## [Covalent ligand efficiency](http://fbdd-lit.blogspot.com/2025/11/covalent-ligand-efficiency.html)

_2025-11-30 · Peter Kenny · Molecular Design_

It appears that whoever first described Economics as the ‘Dismal Science’ had never encountered a ligand efficiency metric. I’ll be taking a look at the FK2025 study (Covalent ligand efficiency) in this post and the study has already been reviewed by Dan. Something that I’ve observed repeatedly over the years is that authors of ligand efficiency studies exhibit a lack of understanding of units and…

Whoever first referred to Economics as ‘The Dismal Science’ had clearly never read an article on ‘3Dness’ in drug discovery. My own experience reading articles on this topic is a sensation of having my life force slowly sucked out (I even suggested that reviewing the '3Dness' literature might be considered as an appropriate penance when I recently confessed my sins at St Gallen Cathedral) and the…

_2025-07-06 · Peter Kenny · Molecular Design_

Here’s a photo from one of my exercise walks in Paramin and you can see the Caribbean Sea in the distance. This is perhaps my favourite view on the walk because it means that I’ve just got to the top of a particularly brutal hill (cars sometimes struggle to get to the top and on one occasion I watched a car fail miserably in four attempts) although you can’t always see the sea as clearly as in…

Whether or not ML models ultimately prove to be fit for this purpose it is worth pointing out that…

I'll open the post with a panorama from the summit of Shutlingsloe, sometimes referred to as Cheshire's Matterhorn, which at 506 m above sea level, is the third highest point in the county. When in the UK, I usually come here to mark the solstices and there's usually a good crowd here for the occasion (the winter solstice tends to be less well attended).
