Course Name: Drug Design Using Biovia

Course Credit: ABC01(2-2-0)

Course Description

Description: Computer-Aided drug design accelerates and economizes drug discovery and drug manufacturing processes; it is considered an effective strategy. With the significant rise in the availability of information on small molecule and biological macromolecule, the efficiency of computer-aided drug discovery has been enhanced and is being extensively applied to almost every phase in drug discovery and manufacturing activities such as detecting targets, validation, lead discovery, and optimization & preclinical tests. Since the last few years, substantial developments have been observed in computer-aided drug discovery techniques including molecular similarity calculation, de novo design, pharmacophore modeling and mapping, molecular docking, and sequence-based virtual screening, etc. Industries and also Government laboratories and Research centers are utilizing ampoule funding after computer-aided drug discovery.

Eligibility: Minimum Qualification required to get into this program is Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Pharmacy or Bachelor of Science or equivalent program in the Life Science or Healthcare sector.

Prerequisite: Before joining the program a student must have adequate knowledge of the organic and bio-molecules and a thorough understanding of biological pathways and life processes in the living organisms. A brief knowledge about the pathophysiology of diseases and drug therapy for various diseases are advantageous

Duration of the course: One-month training and 15 days' practice.

Key highlights: After getting the certification a student will get more preference to various job roles at the Pharma and Biotech industries, Research and Development Organization, etc.
