Researcher at Tsinghua University

In January 2026, researchers at Tsinghua University published DrugCLIP in Science—a system that screened 500 million drug compounds against 10,000 human proteins in under 24 hours using eight GPUs. That is 10 million times faster than conventional molecular docking. The results are publicly available in GenomeScreenDB, giving any lab access to screening data across roughly half the human genome.
