EMBL Course: Target Engagement in Biology and Drug Discovery

Small molecules play an important role in biological research and drug discovery. Demonstrating target engagement by a small molecule is essential to understand its mechanism of action. This course will give a solid practical and theoretical grounding in evaluating how a small molecule interacts with its biological target in cells or in vitro and its role in drug discovery.

Topics: cell biology, biophysics, molecular medicine, cancer, imaging, computational methods
