Phenotypic screens and the target identification that follows can lead to surprising new connections between small molecules and targets. In this issue of Chemistry & Biology, Zhou and colleagues seek to understand the pigmentation of fish skin and end up uncovering an interesting clinical hypothesis about the trypanocidal compound nifurtimox.
