Computer Aided Drug Design

Drug research and discovery is a time-consuming and costly procedure., Several applicants who are enrolled in clinical trials fail for a variety of reasons. Computer-assisted drug design can shorten the process, eliminate surprises, and forecast attributes, lowering R&D costs.

The course will use many free software to address structure and target-based design, molecular modeling, quantum physics, drug similarity characteristics, QSAR, and pharmacokinetics and dynamics.
