A Biochemistry Workshop at University of Lucknow

A workshop on protein structure and computer aided drug designing was organized by the Department of Chemistry, University of Lucknow on 24th-25th July 2015.

The workshop focused on protein structure prediction and its post structural & molecular docking analysis. It was based on lecture methods along with demonstrational techniques. The Faculty, Research Scholars and Students from various colleges, universities and research organizations were a part of the workshop.

The training program’s major objective was to give exposure to the participants to concepts, skills and tools of bioinformatics and to provide hands on training on various bioinformatics approaches such as protein structure prediction, target-ligand interaction analysis and basics of computer-aided drug designing through online as well as offline tools and softwares.

In order to popularize the applications of Bioinformatics among Teachers /Scientists /Research Scholars /Students, such efforts are being initiated by the center to conduct Seminars / Workshops on a regular basis. Moreover, the center is also involved in the research on Computational Biology, Molecular Modeling & Dynamics Simulations, Database Development etc.
