We are holding an eCheminfo Drug Discovery Workshop week at the 
Chemical Research Laboratory, Oxford University the week of 25-29 June 2007.

The approach will be hands-on using an IT classroom and a set of

software packages. Each workshop will be accompanied by 
practitioner-led discussions of the methods worked on by the group.

Drug Design; Ligand Optimisation & Library Design; Structure Search, 
Similarity and Property Estimation; Data Mining, Analysis & 
Visualisation; Integration of Cheminformatics & Bioinformatics Tools
