International Chemical Discovery and Design Course, 18-22 June 2012, Nijmegen, the Netherlands
International Chemical Discovery and Design Course June 18th-22nd 2012, the Computational Drug Discovery (CDD) Group of the Radboud University Nijmegen organizes a course about Chemical Design and Discovery, in cooperation with NBIC and the Netherlands eScience Center. This course covers the recent advances in discovery informatics, with a focus on the application of e-science to real life problems. Different scientific concepts and programs will be introduced and discussed, which are part of the modern drug, food supplement and ingredient discovery pipeline from target discovery & validation to lead discovery & optimization. The morning sessions will introduce key concepts related to the use of computers for chemical discovery in the pharmaceutical industry and other life science pursuits and will be of general interest to anybody in these or other chemistry fields. For the first time we were able to invite keynote speakers from the Netherlands and abroad. As experts in their field of research they will summarize the core message of the course in their presentations. The following speakers have accepted their invitation to give a keynote lecture: ·Dr. John Overington, Computational Chemical Biology, EMBL-EBI, Hinxton, UK ·Prof. Dr. Hugo Kubinyi, Former Head of Drug Design &Combinatorial Chemistry and Molecular Modelling, BASF AG, Ludwigshafen, Germany ·Dr. Ir. Fred van de Velde, NIZO food research BV, The Netherlands ·Prof. Dr. Peter Murray-Rust, Unilever Centre for Molecular Science Informatics, University of Cambridge, UK In the afternoon the hand-ons are targeted at fourth-year university students, PhD students and postdocs, that are interested in the field of computational target and drug discovery. A basic background in bioinformatics or computational chemistry is a prerequisite for attendance. Read more on the course website: http://www.cmbi.ru.nl/ICDD2012.
