Drug molecules often interact with multiple targets, and understanding this polypharmacology is of particular interest in terms of assessing potential side effects, off target effects or toxicity - a major challenge in drug development. 
To support this complex assessment, we developed a new plot type and illustrate its use using high-content image data. This new plot, called the Magellan plot, provides an intuitive visual aid for understanding of on- and off-target effects and their dose-dependent dynamics. In applying unsupervised clustering on these dosing dynamics, we successfully uncovered clusters of on-target versus off-target effects of compounds at specific doses. 
We illustrate the basic workflow and show examples of Magellan plots from an industry-relevant, high-content receptor internalization screen.
