The mission of the Chicago Tri-Institutional Center for Chemical Methods and Library Development (CTCMLD) is to address the fundamental challenges of modern high-throughput organic synthesis and to provide major advances that will significantly facilitate the development of small-molecule libraries for broad biological screening. The Chicago CMLD is jointly supported by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (National Institutes of Health) and the Searle Funds at the Chicago Community Trust. It bridges seven research groups from the three leading institutions in the Chicago area including University of Chicago, Northwestern University and University of Illinois at Chicago.
