Dinner Short Course Announcement:

First Principles in Binding Kinetics:Towards Predicting Structure-Kinetics Relationships*
June 6, 2012 - 6:00-8:00 pm
Royal Sonesta Hotel Boston, Cambridge, Massachusetts

Instructors:
David Swinney, Ph.D., CEO, Institute for Rare and Neglected Diseases Drug Discovery (iRND3)
Xavier Barril, Ph.D., ICREA Research Professor, Physical Chemistry Department, University of Barcelona

This course will address the questions on “why should I care about kinetics?” and “how can I 
understand and predict Structure-Kinetics relationships?”  We will first review the role of 
binding kinetics in drug action and then focus on the particular case of protein-ligand 
non-covalent complexes, reviewing what is known so far about the structural determinants 
of binding kinetics. This course will help you with a better understanding and increased 
awareness of current state of the chemistry and pharmacology of binding kinetics.

This course is scheduled at the conclusion of Day One of CHI's co-located "Structure-Based Drug 
Design" conference.
