How to create undergraduate drug design projects in the lab

8/3/2014

0 Comments

 
The Drug Discovery Today article below describes a new way for chemistry undergraduates to learn about drug discovery.
In a few words,
third year undergraduates with no prior knowledge in medicinal chemistry were first introduced to medicinal chemistry through workshops and tutorials, and then seeked to improve the profile of a weakly potent, insoluble phosphatidylinositide 3-kinase delta(PI3Kd) inhibitor through compound array design,molecular modelling,screening data analysis and the synthesis of target compounds in the laboratory. A special emphasis was given to Team Building, where teams were assembled using the Belbin Team Role questionnaire, which helps identify preferred ways of working in teams. http://www.belbin.com/rte.asp?id=396

Schrodinger's March 2013 webinars: Phase Shape, ensemble docking, and materials applications

2/27/2013

0 Comments

 
Schrodinger's March 2013 seminar series begin next Tuesday, March 5. This seminar series will include presentations on Phase Shape for ligand-based shape screening and new ensemble docking practices to account for protein flexibility.

Schrodinger is also debuting a Materials Science Suite this year - Dr. Vyacheslav S. Bryantsev of Liox Power will also be presenting on computational modeling of rechargeable Li-air battery materials on March 7. Please feel free to invite your colleagues in the materials industries to join us for this materials-focused presentation!

Here is the full webinar list with dates:
