[GTPB] deadline extension
The deadline of the SGDD10 course (Structural Genomics and Drug Design) has been extended to September 15th, as some people required time to make arrangements. The course is not yet full, and it is still possible to apply.
This course is excellent for structural biologists at large but it can interest other scientists.
Course description:
Details on this Biopinformatics training course at the GTPB website: http://gtpb.igc.gulbenkian.pt/bicourses/SGDD10/ Structure determination and prediction (days 1 and 2), human variability and pharmacogenomics, docking of small molecules from an experimental and computational perspective (day 3), quantitative structure-activity relationships (day 4), and practical example (day 5).
The course is addressed to students with some knowledge of structural biology as well as computational biology.
However, the course aims to introduce the students to the theoretical background as well as some practical applications.
Attendees will be trained in the usage of public domain software for:
- Protein structure determination from NMR
- Structure prediction with MODELLER
- SNP analysis
- Docking of small molecules with AutoDock Vina
- Cheminformatics and generation of ligand libraries
Course Pre-requisites:
Basic Molecular Biology. Elementary computing skills.
Other courses open for applications with short deadlines:
PA10 - Pathway Analysis and Drug Targeting
ICG10 - Integrated Cancer Genomics
