Research Overview
Computational Medicinal Chemistry is a multi-disciplinary field of study that utilizes synthetic organic
chemistry in conjunction with developments in biochemistry, computational chemistry, molecular
biology, and pharmacology to advance drug discovery.
In our laboratory problems at the chemistry-life sciences interface are addressed. A large part of our
work concentrates with Docking, Virtual Screening, QSAR, Homology Modeling, Dynamic Simulation,
Pharmacophore Modeling and High Throughput Screening.
Several of the running projects deal with the design of new lead structures for the treatment of infectious
diseases with unmet medical needs (e.g. malaria, TB, Ulcer, HCV, HBV and Dengue Fever)
