The ChemBioGlossary is a repository for key terms used by chemical biologists. All of these terms are featured in Reviews in the journal and authors have supplied initial definitions for them. We work in a multidisciplinary field, where one term can mean many things. Add to these definitions to help develop a robust chemical biology dictionary.
