Workshop on Recent Advances in Computational Methods in Computational Methods in Drug Discovery
17-18 January 2014
Jointly Organized:
Jawaharlal Nehru Institute of Advanced Studies (JNIAS), Hyderabad &SCHRÖDINGER, Bangalore
ABOUT JNIAS:
JNIAS is a Research and Educational Institution recognized by
University Grants Commission (UGC) and included under section 2(f) and 12(B) of
the UGC Act, 1956. JNIAS is also recognized as an Advanced Research Institute by
Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University Hyderabad (JNTUH), Hyderabad and
Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University Anantapur (JNTUA), Anantapur for
offering Ph.D., P.G, M.Phil, P.G. Diploma and academic projects and training
Programmes in Sciences, Engineering & Technology and Humanities and Social
Sciences.
ABOUT SCHRODINGER:
Discovering new drug molecules today is becoming increasingly
expensive and challenging . The need to identify new drugs is becoming necessary
due to resistance with the existing drugs and availability of new drug targets.
Recent developments in Computational lead identification and optimization
methods have proven successful in many recent research programs to identify
novel lead molecules. In recent years biologics market is growing exponentially
in the field of oncology, rheumatology, neurology, cardiology, and
gastroenterology. Computational designing of ovel biologics are increasingly
necessary for treatment of non-curable diseases. Computational methods help to
analyze the protein-protein interfaces, antibody modeling, protein engineering
for property modulation such as solubility, affinity and stability. Schrodinger
Inc. a USA based organization has brought many breakthrough methodologies in
these both areas.
• The workshop focuses on providing training on various topics
related to recent methods in the computational drug design like, protein
structure prediction, structure based docking methods using Glide and Induced
fit docking and ligand based methods like Pharmacophore modeling and QSAR
studies
• This workshop is designed to be useful to researchers/students/faculty, who intends to get trained in computer -aided drug design and understand its applications in research
• Programme schedule includes introduction of the topic by Schrodinger scientists followed by Hands on Schrodinger software.
