Each module has its own assignment

Coronavirus disease 2019 or COVID-19 is an infectious disease that is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The COVID-19 outbreak has proven to become a deadly disease and has been declared a pandemic by World Health Organization. 

Bioinformatics: Computational Drug Discovery and Design

Keeping the demand of the scientific community in-check and the free time most of the community has these days due to COVID-19. BioCode (in partners with BioAfri) is presenting an opportunity to learn Computational Drug Discovery and Design through an online workshop.

All the modules are carefully crafted so you learn from the basics of the Bioinformatics: Computational Drug Discovery and Design to the advanced level. Efficient demonstrations of the tools, methodologies, algorithms and software suites that are utilized within Computational Drug Designing will help you learn how to start the Computational Drug Designing projects, identify leads, do Molecular Docking, predict and analyze the ADMET properties, predict 3D structures of proteins and much more.

Deadline for Application: 20th April

Selection of Application: 22nd April

Registration of Application: 24th April

Workshop Schedule: 27th April - 6th May

Total Seats: 80

Certifications will be awarded

Pre-recorded workshop so  you don't have to worry about the timing. Each module has segments that you watch, learn and practice according to your mood, pace & time.
