A better cure for cancer – and other illnesses – could already be in existence, hidden right under our noses. The problem is that possible new lifesaving drugs are created much faster than scientists can study them. Millions of untested compounds wait, jumbled together in no particular order in vast repositories called compound libraries. A new...
