CHEM 4350 - Drug Design Using Computational Chemistry

The course will introduce students to the basic computational molecular modeling tools used in drug design and development process.  The most commonly used techniques in the drug discovery such as building 3D-models of organic molecules, study their structural properties, Structure Activity Relationship studies (QSAR), molecular docking studies, pharmacophore development and database search will be taught in this course. The relationship between the structure of the drug and its bioactivity will be analyzed followed by identification of structural features that can be modified to improve the efficacy of the drug. Prerequisite(s): CHEM 2220/2220D . (3)
