Sixth European Workshop in Drug Design
June 03 - 10, 2007 - Certosa di Pontignano, Siena (Italy)
The University of Siena is pleased to announce the sixth edition of its
unique Workshop for researchers at Universities and in the
Pharmaceutical Industry, to be held in Certosa di Pontignano, Siena,
Italy, on June, 3th – 10th 2007.
The Sixth European Workshop in Drug Design will allow 65 participating
scientists to work closely with 20 leading researchers from both drug
industry and academic institutions in exploring solutions to concrete
problems encountered in the drug design and discovery process. The goal
of the Workshop is to help participants to collect, interpret and use
experimental data to design new drugs using new methods of molecular
modelling in conjunction with synthetic feasibility concepts and
metabolic pathways. Interaction of these studies with strategies adopted
in the Pharmaceutical Industries, such as high-throughput screening,
will be explored.
Each workshop topic will be considered in terms of individual tasks and
their inter-relationships within the discovery cycle. The major topics
will be the following: ligand/structure based drug design, in silico
ADME - Tox and metabolism, design and screening of virtual libraries,
molecular modelling methodologies, cheminformatics/bioinformatics and
synthetic feasibility. These topics will be covered by lectures in the
mornings.
