Fragment space searches in pharmaceutical research

Chemical fragment spaces consist of molecular fragments and corresponding connection rules. The introduction of this talk deals with the question why searches in chemical fragment spaces are valuable for pharmaceutical research. Then the generation of FTrees Fragment Spaces with CoLibri and the integration of fragment space searches in the drug discovery process at Boehringer Ingelheim are presented. Finally, an application example is shown.

Comparing the Performance of BioSolveIT and Alternative Technologies
August 4, 2026 09:21 CEST
Chemical Space DockingĀ® (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...
