Thank you @ccdc_cambridge for giving me time to talk about one of my favourite subjects - automated drug design. Please do sign up for the webinar if you would like to learn more!
Don't miss our interview with Chris Radoux, Associate Director of Tractability Informatics @ExscientiaAI, and find out more about the role the CSD and CCDC software play in the #AutomatedDrugDesign workflows at Exscientia.

Drop by my poster at @ukqsar to see the results of our automated structure-based design workflow. We achieved a 44% hit rate on two targets, with IC50s from 42 nM to ~1 µM. Automated design is allowing us to assess drug targets based on the quality and novelty of designs
Really looking forward to returning to @ukqsar (in Liverpool this year, a local conference!), this time sharing our work on automated design using Alphafold 2 models.
Our paper “The Druggable Genome: 20 Years Later” has published in @FrontBioinf! Read @Exscientia’s take on the evolution of the concept & what’s needed next: #automation to produce a knowledge graph, from gene-level-to-protein residue 👉 https://t.co/NrTPQVJQBT
📣NEW - UK individuals, charities, community groups & businesses can now record their interest in supporting Ukrainians fleeing the war through our new Homes for Ukraine scheme.

Selectivity made easy:
1. Use computational fragment probes on crystallographic structures to find all binding interactions on related proteins
2. ‘Subtract’ one set from another

In this week's #ChemSciPicks, @TheFischerLab at @StJudeResearch show how temperature artifacts in protein structures can conceal errors when using cryogenic data, and these changes can influence ligand-binding predictions.

Nearly four decades since HIV was first described, there is still no vaccine. So collaborations for COVD-19 drugs must continue. Examples from HIV in the 1980s and 1990s inspire.
