EFMC-ACSMEDI Medicinal Chemistry Frontiers 2026: BioSolveIT Workshop

Welcome to the BioSolveIT workshop page!

This year, BioSolveIT is excited to host an engaging hands-on learning session titled "Medicinal Chemistry in Motion: Introduction to Rational Compound Design", presented by Dr Alexander Neumann.

Structure-based drug design has become an integral part of rational drug development. In the lead optimization process, computational insights into potential binding modes are an indispensable tool for the targeted decoration and modification of the ligand scaffold in order to obtain improved candidates. This BioSolveIT workshop will employ current state-of-the-art methods designed to help medicinal and computational chemists efficiently combine their expertise with software approaches and identify the most promising molecules for follow up.

Beginners and experts alike are invited to benefit first-hand from the valuable insights and to independently explore their own design ideas with BioSolveIT's own drug design dashboard SeeSAR. In a hands-on session, we will focus on binding prediction, fragment-based growing strategies, options for scaffold exploration, and many other relevant current topics.


We look forward to seeing you there and exploring the latest in rational compound design together!
