DrugBank's web layout has evolved significantly since the last release in 2018. The new homepage (https://go.drugbank.com) has been redesigned to be more aesthetically pleasing and functional, with a large centrally located search bar that allows users to query (by name) for ‘Drugs’, ‘Targets’, ‘Pathways’ and ‘Indications’ (Figure 1A). Below the search bar are several display panels with links to DrugBank's restricted-access (i.e. commercial) offerings, followed by a ‘What's trending’ section that capture frequently viewed drugs and products. As noted in our last update from 2018 (7), DrugBank has evolved to become a public-private partnership (P3), with revenue from sales of its commercial products (via OMx Personal Health Analytics Inc.) to the pharma industry being used, in partnership with grant funding from the University of Alberta and other public Canadian funding agencies, to support the regular maintenance and updating of the open-access version of DrugBank.
