The Oregon Translational Research and Development Institute (OTRADI) partners with private and public entities dedicated to the discovery, development and commercialization of novel therapeutics and pharmaceutical products. Its partners include bioscience companies, economic development organizations and research universities.

The OTRADI Partnering Process

Partners work with OTRADI in one of two ways: 

Submit Chemical Compounds
Advance chemical compounds through the drug discovery process by including them in a library of novel, locally sourced, proprietary compounds that OTRADI uses to screen for potential drug-like activity.

Submit Experimental Assays
Advance novel experimental assays and determine unique biological targets by allowing OTRADI to produce a customized high-throughput and/or high-content screening assay that is screened against large compound libraries for potential drug-like activity.
