Dinner Short Course, Organized by Cambridge Healthtech Institute (CHI):
Structure- and Dynamics-Based Design Strategies 

Tuesday, May 20 | 6:00-9:00 pm
Westin Boston Waterfront, Boston, MA

 

This course will reveal design strategies that led to drugs currently in the
clinic and on the market. An emphasis will be made on the exploitation of
the bioactive ligand conformations using combinations of NMR, X-ray,
calculations and SAR. Rational design and the implications of other
properties will be addressed which include atropisomer chirality, drug
self-aggregation and ADMET.  This course will be held prior to the start of
the 14th annual "Structure-Based Drug Design (SBDD)" conference being held
on May 21-22.
