Workshop on - “Molecular Dynamics Simulations in Drug Discovery

MDSDD – 2017

March 2nd - 3rd 2017

About the workshop

In view of the potentially huge significance of this field of research, we are taking the initiative to organize hands-on workshop that will explore in detail the critical aspects and current issues associated with Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Proteins. The workshop is aimed to provide the insight into successful applications of MD simulations of proteins in discovery and design of new drugs achieved by pharmaceutical industries and academics. This year, the focus will be on Molecular Dynamics Simulations in drug discovery. It is expected that the outcomes of this workshop will increase our appreciation of the state of the art of drug design methodologies; stimulation of research in the field in the country and strengthen industrial collaboration. This workshop also will be the starting of our understanding of how the field is being utilised at its fullest in discovering new drugs or in understanding their mechanism of action.
