Drug, discovery and development is an intense, lengthy and an interdisciplinary endeavor. The contribution of computational methodologies has revolutionized the process of drug discovery. CADD is a powerful tool in the study of relationship between molecular structure and biological activity and thus essential in the process of rational drug design. Most pharmaceutical and biotechnological companies use computational design tools. This technique will provide a unique platform to all researchers working in this field to screen new drug entities.
This course is for both beginners and experienced those who want to learn about the details of CADD and latest developments in healthcare. Basic understanding of biochemistry and bioinformatics is essential for this course.
Since this subject is a qualitative discipline relying on a working knowledge of many varied subjects, any Biotech / Pharmaceuticals / Bioinformatics / Chemistry and allied programmes and research scientists in biotechnology and pharma industries and clinicians / medical practioners who is EAGER TO LEARN to stay in line and understanding prevailing tools of drug discovery better is eligible to take up this course.
- Students in their B.Sc / B.Tech / M.Sc / M.Tech/ PhD in any life science field, B.pharm/M.pharm/MBBS who are interested in taking up drug discovery as a career considering the present scenario
- Aspiring researchers to want to contribute towards public health by designing, generating and evaluating effective drug agents (inhibitor) against disease (target) through computational techniques
- Science enthusiasts who like to stay updated about the recent trends and updates regarding one of the most talked topics worldwide
