Webinar: Scaffold Hopping for Digital Drug Design
Thursday 23rd March 2023
4:00 – 5:00 pm GMT / 12:00 – 1:00 pm EDT / 09:00 – 10:00 am PDT
Scaffold hopping is a drug discovery process that involves the identification of novel compounds structurally similar to existing drugs. This powerful approach can be used to identify compounds with enhanced efficacy or reduced toxicity.
During this webinar, we will demonstrate a computational tool for identifying compounds with analogous chemical scaffolds that are starting points for drug design. The CSD-CrossMiner software allows you to identify alternative scaffolds and generate new ideas for further lead optimization. Join the webinar to learn more about CSD-CrossMiner and its benefits for your drug design process.
We will demonstrate:
-
CSD-CrossMiner features to identify alternative scaffolds for drug design
-
How to create feature databases
-
How to install CSD-CrossMiner
Who should attend:
-
Computational and pharmaceutical scientists
-
Computational chemists
-
Academic researchers
