arXiv:2606. 03435v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Cell Painting combines multiplexed fluorescent staining, high-content imaging, and quantitative analysis to generate high-dimensional phenotypic readouts to support diverse downstream tasks such as mechanism-of-action (MoA) inference, toxicity prediction, and construction of drug-disease atlases.

Accurate prediction of patient-specific therapeutic response from pre-treatment transcriptomes is hindered by the scarcity of matched clinical response labels and post-treatment molecular profiles. Preclinical transfer-learning models can simulate drug-induced expression changes but are often hard to interpret and unstable, whereas knowledge-graph methods provide mechanistic context yet remain static and fail to capture drug-induced transcriptomic perturbation dynamics.

arXiv:2607. 20550v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The traditional "one drug, one target" paradigm of structure-based drug design (SBDD) frequently proves inadequate for treating multifactorial diseases such as cancer and neurodegenerative disorders, owing to compensatory signaling pathways and the emergence of drug resistance.

arXiv:2607. 17671v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large-scale single-cell perturbation atlases make it possible to ask an inverse question: given an observed transcriptional response, which annotated targets and compounds in a fixed library are most consistent with that response?
