Pharmaceutical Formulations Workshop 2025
Date & Time - March 19th, 2025
- 10:00AM CET
Location - Mannheim, Germany
Using Schrödinger’s Materials Science Suite for molecular modeling and machine learning in the area of pharmaceutical formulation and delivery
Schrödinger invites you to a one-day in-person workshop in Mannheim, Germany to gain hands-on training in the use of our Materials Science Suite for drug development.
Participants will get practical experience and in-person guidance in using our Materials Science Suite and the tools involved in building molecules, polymers, and complex mixtures for use in molecular dynamics simulations. Leveraging automated property prediction workflows as well as analysis tools will play an important role. Another aspect will be the application of machine learning.
Examples of how molecular-scale simulations can inform drug delivery and formulation research will be included through-out the day.
