The course will be suitable for scientists, engineers and PhD students working within the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry or academia. The course is designed for people who are interested in learning what is the grid technology, what are the benefits to adopt it in drug discovery and what are the steps for deploying applications on a grid infrastructure. A particular focus will be placed upon high throughput virtual screening by in silico docking. 

--------------------
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
--------------------

. Learn about the grid, a new Information Technology . Find out about the real performance of the grid by analysing several use cases from industry and academia (drug discovery, epidemiology.) . Become familiar with the grid services of the gLite middleware (security, job submission, data management.) . Learn how to design and deploy high throughput in silico docking on a cluster grid infrastructure
