 MedChem Awareness Day
 Accelrys is delighted to invite you to our free MedChem Awareness Day
 events being held May 1 and May 2 at our Cambridge office.
 Each one day event will focus on visualization, communication and
 computational methods that enable medicinal chemists and other bench
 scientists to design better lead candidates for synthesis.
 Topics to be discussed include ligand-receptor interactions, pharmacophore
 modelling, overlaying molecules, ADME/property prediction, database
 searching, and improving drug discovery through team collaboration.
 To sign-up for the event, please register at
