Funded Activity Summary

Development of methodology for high throughput free energy calculations in drug design applications. The aim of the project is to develop a high throughput computational screening protocol for use in fragment-based drug design. The method will have universal applications to any plausible and available drug targets. The method will accelerate drug discovery on the targets associated with diabetes, obesity, dengue, skin cancer, etc., which are the primary disease focus of Australia. Australia as a whole and the University of Queensland in particular have invested heavily in various drug discovery programs, this will be of direct benefit to the ongoing research within Australia.
