These workshops are aimed to provide a set of stimulating workshops
using latest advanced modelling techniques of relevance to chemists,
life scientists and modellers working in drug discovery. The workshop
group studies problems with hands-on examples using leading-edge
software and discusses complex issues highlighted by examples and case
studies presented by instructors. A variety of leading drug discovery
software packages and an IT classroom are used by instructors and
participants to work through problems.
