COVIDrugNet: a network-based web tool to investigate the drugs currently in clinical trial to contrast COVID-19
Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic poses a huge problem of public health that requires the implementation of all available means to contrast it, and drugs are one of them. In this context, we observed an unmet need of depicting the continuously evolving scenario of the ongoing drug clinical trials throu...
