Major Responsibilities
 |
Use the necessary tools to optimize leads at all stages of a project |
 |
Data mining of weekly active hits from HTS |
 |
Prioritization of the lead compounds |
 |
Development of PHARMACOPHORE models |
 |
Homology modeling |
 |
Optimization of whole organism activity using the models developed in
conjunction with 2D/3D and QSPR methods. |
