Accelrys Life Science Training with Cerius2

Accelrys will be holding a pair of 2-day workshops at Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ.
On January 15-16, the "Introduction to Cerius2 for Life Sciences Workshop" will be offered. This course provides an overview of molecular modeling techniques for life sciences applications using Cerius2. The workshop will focus on basic skills for use of the interface and will explore various modules in the areas of rational-drug design, structure-based drug design, and combinatorial chemistry. Prior modeling experience is not assumed making this course a great place to learn molecular modeling with Cerius2.
On January 17-18, the " Small Molecule and Drug Design with Cerius2" workshop will be offered. This workshop is aimed at our customers who are involved in drug design or the development of other bioactive compounds and who would like to make more effective use of modeling in their research. The course will focus on QSAR techniques and methodologies as well as structure-based ligand design. Attendees should possess knowledge of basic UNIX commands and have a basic understanding of QSAR theory. Familiarity with the Cerius2 environment is required for attendance to this workshop. Both suggested prerequisites can be met by attending the introductory workshop.
Fees for each 2-day course are $1000 commercial, $500 government, and $400 academic. However, register for both courses and receive a 25% discount for the second course.
Registration is on-line at URL http://www.accelrys.com/training/lifesci/registration.php.
