The practical course gives the student a chance to test his or her understanding of the material taught in the theory course. A short introduction on each topic will be given on this course for individual topics. The students will be assigned to a small project/task which they have to perform. The students will be assigned into groups of two/three/max four members, depending on the total number of students registered for the course.

Block course during the lecture-free period.

Further information: Priyanka Banerjee

Structure of the course:

Everyday students will be assigned projects in groups for each topic. They work together to solve some interesting scientific problem. Each group will be closely supervised by the respective tutors. At the end of the lecture series, students (individual group) will be assigned one of the topic of the course, which they have to present in front of the wider audience. This will provide students, a way to practice presentation skills and can help them to develop the expertise needed to discuss their research in a clear and meaningful way.

Learning how to answer specific questions and present data to a range of individuals, will help students in other endeavors, including future conference presentations, masters or dissertation defenses.

Topic for practical lectures are:

1. Introductory session
2. Homology modeling
3. 3D molecular superimposition of small molecules
4. In silico screening, molecular fingerprints and chemical similarity
5. Natural products and fragments based drug discovery
6. In silico toxicity prediction
7. Personalized medicine

Important: Material from the theory course will be intensively used in the practical course. It is advisable, that the students need to attend the theory course before participating in the practical course. Both the courses are interlinked.

The Structural Bioinformatics Group offers a broad and comprehensive set of lectures in the areas of structural bioinformatics and drug design. The course begins with a general introduction of the drug design pipeline and an introductory course on the structural bioinformatics research field. These lead on to more specialized topics, amongst others in chemo-informatics, molecular docking, homology modeling and more detailed aspects of toxicity prediction models.

Structure of the course:

This course consists of eight lecture series. A detailed lecture for a period of 2 hrs on individual topics is delivered in the morning session. Afternoon session consists of an assignment for each topic. This part of the lecture course is assessed by examination, which will take place at the end of the course. Students are asked to delivered a seminar/presentation for 25 minutes, on the topic assigned to them. The material for the examination will be provided in advance, ensuring that the students have required time for preparation.

Topics for lectures are:

• 1. Introductory session
• 2. Peptide design
• 3. Homology modeling
• 4. 3D Molecular superimposition of small molecules
• 5. In silico screening, molecular fingerprints and chemical similarity
