This episode features our conversation with Roger Linington, from Simon Fraser University. Roger is a natural products chemist, and his research group works in metabolomics, drug discovery and screening, structure elucidation, and chemical biology. In recent years, his group has turned to some software development in order to build the tools that they need, and The Natural Product Atlas, a high-quality freely-available natural products structure database is one great result. In our conversation, we talk about NPAtlas, and the large international collaboration that produced it, what one can do with all that information, and we muse on how to start connecting the large and ever-growing set of omics data that natural products research continues to produce.
