CSIR Sponsored Workshop on Hands on training on software related to Computer Aided Drug Design,21st and 22nd January, 2013,at INSTITUTE OF PHARMACY Nirma University




Nirma University (NU) was established in the year 2003 as a  Statutory University under a Special Act passed by the Gujarat  State Legislative Assembly. The University Grants Commission  (UGC) has recognized Nirma University under Section 2(f) and  the University is also accredited by National Assessment and  Accreditation Council (NAAC). Nirma University is a member  of the Association of Indian Universities (AIU) and the Association of Commonwealth Universities (ACU). In addition to  Institute of Pharmacy, the other constituent institutes of the University include Institute of Technology, Institute of Diploma  Studies, Institute of Law, Institute of Management, and Institute  of Science. The 125-acre green and clean campus is serene with  picturesque landscapes. Excellent hostel and transport facilities  are available along with bank, dining halls, canteen, student  store, yoga hall, health center, gymnasium, and sports grounds on the campus.

About the Workshop
The processes used by academic and industrial scientists to    discover new drugs has recently experienced a true renaissance with  many new and exciting computer aided techniques being developed in the past 5-10 years. Medicinal chemistry has  benefited  tremendously from the technological advances in the field of Computer Aided Drug Design. Structure-based drug design has been  shown to be an invaluable technology for medicinal chemistry and  drug discovery applications since it often dramatically reduces the  overall cost of drug discovery. Many advances including crystallography and informatics are behind these successes. Of great importance is also the impact these advances in structure-based drug  design are likely to have on the overall pharmacokinetic and toxicity profile of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients.  The aim of the workshop is to disseminate knowledge about this  immensely useful discipline, which accelerates the design of new  leads for the life threatening diseases like Cancer, AIDs, Tuberculosis, Leishmania etc. These new tools have had a  significant impact on both drug design and discovery in the pharmaceutical industry  that helps the scientist in their research work. The workshop introduces concepts through lectures delivered by renowned speakers,  discussion regarding envisaged  and encountered problems in  these and related technologies.  The workshop will also include  hands-on training on some important computer software for drug  design. Attending the workshop will be of great help to budding  scientists from various fields as it covers how to effectively put to  use the knowledge of different software of drug design.
