Short Courses in Chemoinformatics

Short Courses in Chemoinformatics will take place from 1st June 2009 to 5th June 2009 in Université de Strasbourg, Faculté de Chimie, Strasbourg, FRANCE.

For whom?
Chemists (Bachelor’s degree or better), technicians having experience in database management, modelisation software, willing to broaden their skills. Chemoinformatics is a new scientific area appeared a few years ago. It relates to (i) storage, management and search of chemical data (databases), (ii) the development of predictive models connecting the chemical structure of molecules with their physicochemical and biological properties, and, (iii) design in silico of new compounds having desired properties. The chemoinformatics approaches are very much used in phamaceutical companies to carry out a virtual screening, to optimize a lead, for predictions of ADME/Tox properties.
