Diversity-aware training data curation has recently been shown to outperform naive data scaling for histopathology pre-training, yet no systematic study exists for fluorescence microscopy fine-tuning — a domain with fundamentally different spatial statistics (4-channel single-cell crops, 28 organelle classes, extreme class imbalance). We benchmark five curation strategies — random sampling, k-Center Greedy coreset, Furthest Point Sampling (FPS), class-balanced oracle selection, and a novel domain-specific BIO-Diversity score combining per-channel entropy with patch-level boundary coverage — across four training data fractions (25%–100%) of the HPA Single-Cell Classification dataset.

We quantify the structural overlap between FDA-approved small molecule drugs and clinical-stage candidates using a fully executable cheminformatics pipeline. Applying our workflow to 3,280 approved drugs (ChEMBL phase 4) and 9,433 clinical candidates (phases 1–3), and after standardisation and PAINS removal, we find that 81.
