Researchers from Washington University School of Medicine in St Louis have developed a free resource called the Drug Gene Interaction database, or DGIdb, that aggregates data on drug-gene interactions from multiple scientific databases and published literature.

The database provides a single resource accessible through a user-friendly interface that makes it easier for researchers and clinician scientists to search for targeted therapies and potentially druggable genes.
