Includes access to all paid, intermediate life science courses, including: designing quality ligand libraries, target enablement, validation, and preparation, and virtual screening with integrated physics and machine learning
As structural data and ligand libraries continue to grow, so does the demand for validated, scalable, and computationally efficient hit discovery workflows.
This course bundle combines all three of Schrödinger’s intermediate life science courses into one powerful program, designed to build practical expertise across the entire virtual screening pipeline.
Through this series you’ll gain hands-on experience with Schrödinger’s industry-leading Maestro and command-line interface. Ideal for scientists looking to enhance their practical skills in structure-based modeling, ligand library design, and virtual screening techniques.
An opportunity to professionally develop, deepen drug discovery skills, and earn certifications and digital badges that demonstrate capabilities across all major stages of the target validation and hit discovery process.
This course comes with temporary access to a web-based version of Schrödinger software, complete with licenses and compute resources
Prepare, assess, and refine experimental (X-ray, cryo-EM) and ML-predicted (AlphaFold, homology) structures. Identify druggable binding sites and characterize cryptic pockets
Explore chemical space, profile vendor libraries, and generate tailored in silico enumerated libraries. Learn strategies to filter libraries to remove liabilities while preserving diversity
Run pilot virtual screens, prepare receptor grids, apply known active enrichment validation techniques
Evaluate and prioritize hits, including inspection and clustering. Scale screening with machine learning and AB-FEP+
The course bundle includes access to the following three courses in their entirety during the single course session.
We proudly support the next generation of scientists and are committed to providing opportunities to those with limited resources. Learn about your funding options for our online certification courses as a student, post-doc, or industry scientist and enroll today!
When you complete a course with us in molecular modeling and are ready to share what you learned with your colleagues and employers, you can share your certificate and badge on your LinkedIn profile.
Pricing varies by each course and by the participant type. For students wishing to take this, we offer a student price of $500, and $1435 for non-students.
Once the course session begins, all lectures are asynchronous and you can view the self-paced videos, tutorials, and assignments at your convenience. When registering for the course you will select the start and end date. Within those dates, you will have asynchronous access to the course material and virtual workstation to work on the course when it best suits your schedule.
Interested participants can pay for the course by completing their registration and using the credit card portal for an instant sign up. Please note that a credit card is required as we do not accept debit cards. Additionally, we can provide a purchase order upon request, please email online-learning@schrodinger.com if you are interested in this option. If you have any questions regarding how to pay for the course, please visit our funding options page.
Schrödinger is committed to supporting students with limited resources. Schrödinger’s mission is to improve human health and quality of life by transforming the way therapeutics and materials are discovered. Schrödinger proudly supports the next generation of scientists. We have created a scholarship program that is open to full-time students or post-docs to students who can demonstrate financial need, and have a statement of support from the academic advisor. Please complete the application form if you qualify for our scholarship program!
While access to the software will end when the course closes, some of the material within the course (slides, papers, and tutorials) are available for download so that you can refer back to it after the course. Other materials, such as videos, quizzes, and access to the software, will only be available for the duration of the course.
For the duration of the course, you will have access to a web-based version of Maestro, Bioluminate, Materials Science Maestro and/or LiveDesign (depending on the course). You do not have to separately purchase access to any software. While access to the software will end when the course closes, some of the material within the course (slides, papers, and tutorials) are available for download so that you can refer back to it after the course. Other materials, such as videos, quizzes, and access to the software, will only be available for the duration of the course. Please note that Schrödinger software is only to be used for course-related purposes.
