Scientific Lunch Workshop and Networking (San Diego/San Francisco 2025)

A Special BioSolveIT Event:
Insights into Chemical Space Exploration

You’re invited to join an engaging and informal lunch workshop designed for professionals in drug discovery who are eager to exchange ideas and explore innovative approaches in the field.
At two informal, in-person lunch events in San Diego and San Francisco, we will host a short workshop on efficient strategies for exploring chemical space and processing large molecular datasets — key topics in early-stage drug discovery. Connect with peers, learn from experts, and enjoy a relaxed networking opportunity during an extended lunch break.
Both events are free-of-charge but registration is required.

The San Diego lunch will take place on Monday, July 21, starting at 11:45 am.
The San Francisco lunch will take place on Wednesday, July 23, starting at 11:45.

Event Description

This session will feature a concise, hands-on introduction to Chemical Space Exploration, with an additional focus on Chemical Space Docking™ — a next-generation structure-based method that enables the efficient screening of ultra-large, synthetically accessible Chemical Spaces, reaching into the trillions. These techniques are transforming early-stage discovery by helping researchers rapidly identify the most promising chemistry with precision and speed.

Beyond the workshop itself, the event offers a valuable opportunity to network with fellow scientists from the local community. Whether you're deep into your research career or just getting started, the setting encourages meaningful conversations, fresh perspectives, and new connections — all over a relaxed lunch break.

Take advantage of this chance to learn something new, meet inspiring peers, and gain insights that could shape your next breakthrough.

Topics of the Workshop

Ligand-based exploration of ultra-large Chemical Space driven by molecular similarity.
Proximal mining for close analogs of compounds of interest applying fingerprint-based algorithms.
Introduction to pharmacophore-based searches for scaffold hopping and hit expansion.
Creation of tailored target-focused libraries for in-house worklfows (e.g., AI methods).
Fragment-based mining for structural motifs in a kinase-focused scenario.
Chemical Space Docking®: Novel structure-based approach for virtual screening of trillion-sized compound collections.
