French pharma firm Servier gets Neo4j to help find relationships in 'messy' data
Thierry Dorval, head of data sciences and data management, explained that the goal was to create a library of small molecules – defined in chemistry as less than 1,000 atomic mass units and smaller than proteins and nucleic acids – based on interactions with the graph database. The link could be due to phenotypic similarity or transcriptome similarity , for example.
Dorval said the result aligned with KPIs used to justify the project in terms of time to market for drug development, a critical differentiator in the pharma industry. Grignard said Servier built its knowledge graph using data pipelines from multiple relational databases already in the business.
