Description

The Course will consist of several seminars and computer practicals that will cover the main concepts introduced in the seminars. The school is part of a wider initiative “Passion For Knowledge” that will take to San Sebastian leading scientist around the world to share their research experience. The participants, therefore, will also benefit from an outstanding atmosphere and social activities around the school that will remark the links between science and society, in its more general sense.

The subjects covered in the school will be:

Force fields
Simulation methods overview
Molecular Dynamics and Monte Carlo Methods
Normal Mode Analysis
Accelerated dynamics
Free energy Calculations
Continuum electrostatics
Homology modeling
Docking
Drug design
Quantum Chemistry and QM/MM methods

Organizing committee:

Dr. Eider San Sebastian (Chairwoman) (UPV/EHU)
Prof. Xabier Lopez (Chairman) (UPV/EHU and DIPC)
Dr. Elixabete Rezabal (UPV/EHU and DIPC)
Dr. Elena Formoso (UPV/EHU and DIPC)
Dr. Rafael Grande-Aztatzi (UPV/EHU and DIPC)
Dr. David de Sancho (UPV/EHU and DIPC)
Dr. Jose M. Mercero (UPV/EHU and DIPC)

Objectives

To give a theoretical and practical introduction to computational methods for biological molecules, relevant for the understanding of biological processes at the molecular level, and specially useful for the design and optimization of molecular drugs.
