Drug-Target Kinetics in Drug Design
Thursday, January 28, 2016, 2:00-3:00 PM ET

The American Chemical Society is kicking off the 2016 Drug Design and Delivery Symposium with a webinar on kinetics in drug design. Robert Copeland of Epizyme, Inc., will talk about the importance of target conformational dynamics and its impact on drug affinity. The drug-target residence time model will be introduced, and its applications in drug design will be reviewed. Visit the Drug Design and Delivery Symposium home page to learn more about upcoming events and access the archive of recordings from previous years.

9/17/2014

0 Comments

 
On September 24, 2014, a world-class group of scientists from biotech, pharma and academia will present the latest research findings and new technologies that are driving the design, discovery and development of new drugs – from small molecules and monoclonals to RNA therapeutics and gene-editing technologies.

The event is free and organized by the American Chemical Society (ACS) and ACS's magazine C&EN news.

To register for free please follow this link.  Even if you can’t make the live lectures or the time zone is not convenient for you, all presentations will be archived and available on demand for three months.

You will even have the chance to “Walk the floor” in a virtual exhibition hall, participate in panel discussions and Q&A sessions and do live-chat with peers and vendors.

Some of the talks that I find interesting:

Accurate Prediction of Ligand Binding Free Energies - MARK MURCKO, PhD (Disruptive Biomedical LLC)

Design of Protein Structures, Functions and Assemblies - DAVID BAKER, PhD (HHMI/Univ of Washington)

Site-directed ligand discovery for cryptic sites - MICHELLE ARKIN PhD (UCSF)

The Promises and Challenges of Next-Generation Therapeutics - GREG VERDINE, PhD (Warp Drive Bio)
