Call for new projects
The LDC is always interested in new project proposals coming from academic research or industry.
Your proposal will initially be evaluated in a discussion with the LDC management and then through literature and patent reviews. If you are interested in collaborating with the LDC, please send us a brief, non-confidential outline of your project or give us a call. Although we are basically open to all kinds of concepts and have no strict focus on particular indications, you should still check whether your project meets the following criteria.
Project criteria
- Your project is scientifically innovative (no me-too approaches)
- Your project is characterized by high medical need
- You hold specific know-how in the relevant therapeutic field
- You appreciate close collegial cooperation with vivid mutual exchange and support throughout the project
- Your project principally fits the LDC focus: the development of small molecule leads
- Your project is at an early stage (e.g., validated target or hit-to-lead phase)
