        18th-22nd 2012,&nbsp;
        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.</span></p>
    <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US">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 &amp;
        validation to lead discovery &amp; optimization.</span></p>
    <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">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.</span></p>
    <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">For the first time we were
        able to invite
        keynote speakers from the Netherlands and abroad. As experts in
