SPEAKER/BIO:

*Dr. **David Mobley, Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences and Department
of Chemistry, UC Irvine*





ABSTRACT:

Research in the Mobley lab focuses on computational techniques to help
guide pharmaceutical drug discovery efforts. In this talk, I'll highlight
some of the key challenges facing drug discovery, then give an overview of
how my group is developing and using computational methods to help early
stage drug discovery. A particular focus is on techniques for accurately
predicting binding interactions between proteins and small molecules using
molecular modeling and simulations. I'll discuss how some of these
techniques work, and then give an overview of some our recent work in this
area.
