Possible topics include (but are not limited to): * 3D databases, including docking and pharmacophore analysis; * assay QC and its influence on data mining; * chemical data mining; * descriptor validation; * design of leadlike combinatorial libraries; * design of screening collections; * e-business to facilitate lead discovery; * novel software and hardware systems for lead discovery; * selective compound acquisition from in house and commercial suppliers; * similarity and clustering methods; * structure-activity methods for lead identification and early optimisation; * structure-based design for lead identification and early optimisation; * virtual screening; * case histories incorporating any of the above. Authors interested in submitting a paper for consideration should send a title and brief abstract to Val Gillet (v.gillet@sheffield.ac.uk) by 15th September 2000.

I'm with an academic group synthesizing unnatural peptides by standard Fmoc chemistry. We have had the most success with continuous-flow synthesizers over manual methods. We are now interested in making biased libraries, making the biasing element on an automated synthesizer and then combinatorializing at the N-terminus. I'm interested in hearing whether there are reasonable automation solutions for small libraries in 96-well plates. Is there continuous-flow technology adapted for this purpose that could run with a minimum of manual intervention? Ideally what I'd look for is something like a 96-well Synergy-type machine, but I'm under the impression that this does not exist commercially. Also, since we are an academic group, I'd be interested in knowing what type of price points we are looking at. Thanks, -Michael.
