Description

This project seeks to develop a new broad-spectrum antiviral drug against viruses from the Bunyavirales family. These viruses have been designated as being among the highest potential to cause the next pandemic. CFD Research is advancing a natural product-derived antiviral chemistry that has demonstrated strong in vitro potency against Bunyaviruses with low cytotoxicity. We seek to produce an optimized lead candidate from this project.
