Flare V10 webinar

Join us for the latest in our Flare™ V10 release webinar series. In this session we will look at the ability for medicinal and computational chemists to work collaboratively in order to accelerate the discovery workflow.

We will showcase a lead optimization workflow, demonstrating a process of first reviewing ideas to aid the identification of interesting molecules, followed by further investigations with methods such as Docking, QSAR modeling and a production mode run using Flare™ Free Energy Perturbation (FEP).

Whitepaper – Empowering medicinal chemists with AI

 

Did you miss our recent sponsored whitepaper “Empowering medicinal chemists with AI” in association with Fierce Biotech?

In the paper we discuss the advantages of AI, ML, and Free Energy Perturbation (FEP) and how combining them can significantly accelerate the progress of molecules from hit to lead and on to the drug candidate in silico, reducing time and spend.
