title: Ligand discovery using small molecule microarrays.
abstract: Small molecule microarrays have recently been used to identify ligands for several proteins, and several themes regarding screening strategies and limitations have emerged. In this review, some of the technical issues related to the manufacture and screening of small molecule microarrays, as well as prospects for small molecule microarrays in several areas of drug discovery and chemistry, are discussed.
