Getting Started with Computational Drug Discovery

Date Thursday, May 9, 2024
Location Virtual

Interested in learning the basics of computational drug discovery but not sure how to get started? Join Tigran Abramyan, Principal Scientist in computer-aided drug discovery at Deep Origin, for an introduction to the field!

In this 60-minute webinar, we’ll provide an overview of computational drug discovery tools and methods for obtaining a structural model of a protein target.

What You’ll Learn

In particular we’ll pursue a protein target exploration with tools like UniProt, RCSB PDB, ChEMBL, and PyMOL:

  • Explore Key Protein Databases: Learn to use UniProt, RCSB PDB, and ChEMBL for comprehensive protein research.
  • Visualize with PyMOL: Master protein structure visualization techniques.
  • Real-World Case Studies: Analyze practical examples of applying these databases and tools in drug discovery.
  • Molecular Dynamics and Docking: Brief introduction to how these structure-based drug discovery techniques can aid drug design

Optionally install Conda/Jupyter, KNIME, and PyMol to follow the examples. Materials will be shared post-webinar for self-paced learning.
