                  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.
