A sequel for beginners, part 2: ligand-based drug design — the basics

“But we don’t have a protein structure!&quot – it’s a common complaint in drug hunting. In fact, you don’t have your back to the wall if you need to spot active compounds in this situation! In this BioSolveIT webinar, you will learn the background to basic techniques such as ligand superposition. By the end of the hour, you will have learned how the impossible becomes possible, intelligently mining for interesting and synthetically feasible leads from gigantically large spaces of potential compounds in just a few minutes.

Comparing the Performance of BioSolveIT and Alternative Technologies
August 4, 2026 09:21 CEST
Chemical Space Docking® (C-S-D) is designed for computationally efficient structure-based exploration of ultra-large Chemical Spaces. But how does it compare with other approaches? When searching ultra-large Chemical Spaces, computational efficiency and algorithmic strategies are crucial if trillions of compounds are to be screened for potential candidates. The approaches used to...
