Drug Discovery Design Methods & Applications

July 22-26, 2013

Medical Sciences Teaching Centre, Oxford University, Oxford, UK
Virtual screening, structure-based drug design, cheminformatics and molecular modelling supporting drug discovery and design.
Focused case studies in Anti Malarial Drug Design.

a Hands-on 5 Day eCheminfo Workshop Week facilitated by Barry Hardy

Work through in detail and discuss case studies, practical examples, methods and emerging techniques with leading modelling experts!

These workshops are aimed to provide a set of stimulating workshops using latest advanced modeling techniques of relevance to chemists, life scientists and modellers working in drug discovery. Participants should return to their labs with new ideas, best practices and software experiences to maximise productivity in their own drug discovery research activities.

Workshop groups will study problems with hands-on examples using computational drug discovery methods and discuss issues highlighted by examples and Case Studies presented by instructors. A Case Study set with a focus on Kinases will be used to link all workshop activities throughout the week in which participants will work in small groups on their case study problems.

Software packages and an IT classroom will be used by instructors and participants to work through drug discovery and design problems. Participants may propose problems and issues to the faculty ahead of the workshop. Participants will also have ample opportunity to discuss their perspectives and criticisms of the methods studied and should take-away key nuggets of understanding from these intensive sessions.
