4/ Make sure to checkout our Open Access paper, associated code and thoughts on implementation 👇

📄 Open Access paper: pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10....

💻 Code on GitHub: github.com/polaris-hub/...

💭 Thoughts on implementation: polarishub.io/blog/imagini...

3/ We're especially thrilled that this paper is open access thanks to the JCIM editor's choice program.

We hope for the broad adoption of these guidelines to help close the gap between perceived progress and real-world impact in drug discovery.

2/ The initial preprint was refined with invaluable feedback:

✅ Community: Unique open-feedback period hosted on Github: github.com/polaris-hub/....

✅ Practical Learnings: Lessons learned from applying these guidelines in the ASAP Antiviral challenge.

✅ Peer Review: Formal review process at JCIM.
