Subject: 20.02.20 [CCG Webinar] In Silico Fragment-Based Drug Design: Approaches and Applications | Feb. 20 & 27
Join us for a free live webinar: In Silico Fragment-Based Drug Design: Approaches and Applications

Fragment-based drug design (FBDD) is a key approach in the discovery of high-quality drug candidates. As a compliment to biophysical FBDD methods, in silico FBDD uses structure-based approaches to rapidly design and screen large libraries of virtual compounds, allowing for the exploration of a much larger chemical space. The webinar will describe in silico FBDD methods ranging from combinatorial fragment design to scaffold-hopping in the receptor active site, along with approaches for fragment linking and growing. A method for generating a series of closely related derivatives through the reaction-based Combinatorial Library and Medicinal Chemistry Transformations applications in the MOE software will be presented. The use of pharmacophore models and 2D/3D descriptors to guide in silico FBDD processes will also be discussed.
