Compound Management Center

The Compound Management (CM) Center was established in 2007. The management, maintenance, and organization of the St. Jude Compound Collection containing >650,000 compounds is central to the drug-discovery pipeline and ultimately, the mission of our institution.

The mission of CM is to collaborate with the other CBT centers and investigators across the institution to support the drug discovery workflow by managing the logistics, storage, maintenance, tracking, and dispensing of the St. Jude Compound Collection. This enables small-molecule drug discovery by providing internal and external collaborators immediate access to chemical matter that is commercially available and internally synthesized. Compounds are distributed daily in customized concentrations and formats.
