Past trainings

European Molecular Discovery Training in MetaSite / MassMetaSite / WebMetaBase / MassChemSite

Location: Montelino (Italy)

Start date: May 14, 2018

End date: May 16, 2018

Molecular Discovery is organizing a Training at the Molecular Discovery Headquarters in Montelino (Italy) on the 14th-16th of May 2018. The aim of the training will be the “Use of Webmetabase in Drug Discovery for both Met ID specialist and chemists”. The Training will be divided in two parts depending on the interest: The first part will be focused on the processing of the metabolism data for small molecules and peptides and will be done on the 14th – 15th of May 2018. While the second part will be dedicated to the use of the data in drug discovery, how to design compounds, computational tools to mine the information. This second part will be done on the 15-16th of May 2018.

  • Comparing Metabolites from different experiments and the same compound:
      • Cluster View
      • Comparator
  • Unmasking the structural factors that affects metabolism: Fragment Analysis
  • Analysis on how the different experiment (in-vivo vs in-vitro / Human vs Rat hepatocytes): Business intelligent tool
  • Prediction of the Site of Cleavage:
      • Peptides SoC frequency analysis
      • SoC prediction tool
  • How kinetic data can help in unrevealing the metabolic pathway

You can sign up for one, two or the three days of the training and the price would be 250 $ for one day and 500$ for the 3 days and it will be include lunch and coffee breaks. In order to do the training a computer is needed. If you are unable to bring your own we can rent one for the training at a cost of 100 $/day.
