The issue will highlight best practices for developing, validating and applying this subset of CPPTs, and provide an opportunity to discuss factors that affect their performance, especially as it pertains to their clinical use and informing drug discovery.Special Issue Editors, Milka Kostic, PhD, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, and Bruce J. Melancon, PhD, Vanderbilt University, School of Medicine, will consider articles from the full breadth of research in the field from original research papers, reviews, and methods papers, to perspectives, profiles, commentaries, and exemplary front matter.Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: Development of drug discovery assays based on the use of fluorescent probes and toolsDevelopment and validation of probes for clinical imaging applicationsDevelopment of live cell and live animal assays for studying pharmacological properties of drugsPhenotypic screening assays using high-content imagingDeveloping imaging technologies to accelerate drug discoveryContributions will receive prompt and thorough peer review, feedback, and decision.
