KurzbeschreibungThe lecture series provides an introduction to computer applications in medicinal chemistry. The topics cover molecular representations and similarity, ligand-based virtual screening, and structure-based virtual screening. All theoretical concepts and algorithms presented are illustrated by practical applications and case studies
LernzielThe students will learn how molecules can be represented in computers and how molecular similarity is calculated. They will learn the concepts of ligand-based and structure-based virtual screening to identify potential drug candidates, and understand possibilities and limitations of computer-assisted drug design in pharmaceutical chemistry. As a result, they are prepared for professional assessment of computer-assisted drug design studies in medicinal chemistry projects.
InhaltThe topics include molecular representations and similarity, ligand-based virtual screening (similarity search, QSAR, etc.) and structure-based virtual screening (docking, physics-based models).
SkriptScript will be available.
