I will provide an overview of the drug discovery process and the
scientific challenges associated with bringing novel therapies to the
patient.  The steep odds and punishing attrition rates characteristic of
traditional drug discovery have increased the demand for computational
approaches for improved target selection and compound design.  I will
suggest areas where the efforts of computer scientists working with
biological knowledge can play a key role in generating mechanistic
insights for toxicity, physiology, and disease.
