hic early drug development with a strong emphasis on schistosomiasis. Activity-based screening of open access libraries has identified new potent antischistosomal molecules. Investigating the activity [...] that could be used for further compound development. Finally, this work highlights the importance of open access libraries, drug repurposing and non-profit product development partnerships to stimulate the
