BOSTON, USA | 1 Day workshop on Drug Discovery Technology at Drug Discovery & Therapy World Congress 2017

BioDiscovery Group, India in collaboration with Eureka Conferences Inc. will conduct 1 day workshop on DRUG DISCOVERY TECHNOLOGY | SYSTEMATIC STUDY OF MOLECULAR INTERACTIONS OF DRUG & PROTEIN TARGETS at Drug Discovery & Therapy World Congress 2017 going to be held in Boston, MA, USA.

This 1 day training course will focus on the use of efficient technologies used in the discovery & designing of Drugs on the basis of the biological targets critical to the disease condition. During this course, you will be introduced to basic principles of Rational Drug Design along with Proteomics in Drug Discovery. The course includes hands-on exercises in the Structure based drug design approach.
