Winner of Fall 2021 Scientific Challenge: Aaron Kuriakose Prakash with Covalent Tuberculosis Drugs

September 20, 2022 12:56 CEST

We are excited to announce the winner of the Fall 2021 Scientific Challenge: Aaron Kuriakose Prakash from the Madras Christian College (Chennai, India)!

In the past twelve months he used the covalent docking feature of SeeSAR to screen for potential drug candidates to treat tuberculosis infections. He got the best out of the the preprocessed covalent compound supplier libraries and discovered forty three drug candidates with improved estimated affinity compared to the covalently-bound itaconic acid.

We wish him all the best for his further research projects and hope for more success stories with BioSolveIT applications.
