The mission of the Frank H. Allen International Research and Education Programme (FAIRE) is to support research and education in underrepresented communities and make structural data more accessible worldwide. Institutions from 82 eligible countries can apply and if the application is successful the programme covers the cost of campus-level access to CSD-Enterprise for three years. Currently, there are 24 active sites divided between 17 countries.

Here we highlight a recent paper by researchers at UBE Industries and Santen Pharmaceutical Co in which ConQuest helped identify a scaffold with a promising EP2-selective receptor agonist that may lower intraocular pressure (IOP). A prodrug of it was selected as a clinical candidate for the treatment of glaucoma.
This is part of our series highlighting examples of the Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre (CCDC) tools in action by scientists around the world.
I’m a Research and Applications Scientist on the Materials Science team at CCDC, and I recently taught a session at the Rigaku School for Practical Crystallography, which ran from June 7–18, 2021. The school focused on practical applications of software, techniques and technologies for crystallography. This blog contains links to my recorded modules as well as a self-assessment quiz you can use to check what you’ve learned.
