ABOUT THE WORKSHOP

The workshop on Chemoinformatics and Drug Designing is exclusively designed for college students pursuing courses in life sciences in the under graduate level. This workshop will provide a unique opportunity for students to get introduced to the field of chemoinformatics “exploring small molecules by computational simulations”. The workshop includes lectures on basics as well as recent advancements in chemonformatics, followed by hands on training to practice the earned knowledge. This workshop will also provide them with an opportunity to visit the infrastructure and the state of the art laboratories

in the School of Life Sciences at B. S. Abdur Rahman University.
