Molecular Modeling and Industries



 Hi,
    I'm sending the answers i got about my question of molecular modeling
 and industries.
 This was my question:
   Hi,

 information,

 subject,

 Here are the answers

 Hi Adrian,
         have a look to these pages:

         hope it helps a little
 bye

 1) Pfizer, Merck, Vertex, Janssen Research Foundation, Dupont-Merck,
 Amgen,
 Abbott, Parke-Davis, Schering-Plough todas estas compa~nias gigantes
 tienen
 grupos de Computational Chemistry/ Molecular Modeling.
 Naturalmente, cada compa~nia tiene su area de interes   y especializacion
 que es dificil, si bien no imposible, saber.
 Algunas de las compa~nias mencionadas tienen grupos que desarrollan
 programas para estudiar en detalle las interacciones entre peque~nas
 moleculas y sus enzimas de interes (o
 receptores).

 I am afraid that I agree with Lief Norskov's answer to your original
 question - it is impossible to answer. Now your question is more like
 "where can I get some idea's or information on how Molecular Modeling is
 used by the industries".
 I think that the web pages by Molecular Simulations (MSI) would provide
 a suitable entrance for your question (www.msi.com). They have a
 comprehensive collection of modeling products covering a wide area.
 There are also some case studies, which could be useful to look at:
 http://www.msi.com/info/applications/index.html
 MSI is actually making a big business on this topic -- so yes, Molecular
 Modeling is definitely used by the industries :)
 Hope this helps

 Dear Adrian:
 You might take a look at our web site (http://www.wavefun.com).  There is
 information there on what you're looking for, and links to other places
 with more information...
 Regards,
 Shawn Butler

 Regarding to your recent question at CCL about Molecular
 Modeling in industry, I suggest you to check Web sites of
 software developpers like MSI (www.msi.com) or TRIPOS
 (www.tripos.com).
 In these sites you will find some industrial applications of
 computational chemistry software.
  Best regards.
