Medicinal chemistry extraction #49

Open cdsouthan opened 4 years ago

I am interested in what the initiative might achieve in this area. I have been having a go the manual hard way https://cdsouthan.blogspot.com/2020/02/opening-2019-ncov-hamburger.html which is obviously inefficient. Major caveat is that there is little hard data on COVID19 (but expecting more) although some on SARS, including older patents. Open to discussion on ways forward

We need precise indications of what to extract from where. There is no general AI in the system. That may come if enough well defined components are scraped.
