RESIDENTIAL SCHOOL ON MEDICINAL CHEMISTRY:

CHEMISTRY AND BIOLOGY IN DRUG DISCOVERY

Madison, New Jersey - June 8-12, 2009

The Residential School on Medicinal Chemistry is a week-long graduate level course organized to provide an accelerated program for medicinal chemists, biologists and other industrial and academic scientists who wish to broaden their knowledge of small molecule drug discovery and development. The School’s aim is to concentrate on the fundamentals that are useful in drug discovery spanning initial target validation through clinical development. Several case histories of recent successful drug development programs will also be presented.

The five-day program consists of lectures, seminars, case histories and discussions covering the following topics:

Target validation

Receptor binding

Enzyme inhibition

Kinases

Ion channels

High throughput screening

Hit-to-lead progression

Lead discovery &modification

Structure-based drug design

Drug-like properties

Patents

Plasma protein binding

Cheminformatics

PK & drug metabolism

Preclinical toxicology

Clinical development

William Greenlee, Vincent Gullo and Kenneth Thomas, Co-organizers
