The laboratory was opened in 2023-24. Its primary focus is on software development for the analysis and prediction of the biological activity of compounds. The laboratory specialises in theoretical and computer-aided drug research.
What we do
The laboratory uses a broad variety of approaches to drug design and discovery, including:
- 3D/4D QSAR modelling;
- molecular docking;
- statistical methods;
- regression analysis;
- polynomial models;
- data mining;
- classification algorithms;
- discriminant analysis;
The research is performed on the basis of multi-conformational and multi-tautomeric approaches taking into account the multi-stage drug delivery process, drug metabolism, and transmembrane penetration. The researchers develop methods and software for 3D/4D QSAR modelling, molecular docking, and virtual screening for drug discovery. Several antitumour and antimicrobial drugs developed at the laboratory have successfully been tested in vivo & vitro.
