How can I predict binding affinity without a target protein structure?
Why traditional ligand-based QSAR methods have fallen short You might be sceptical about ligand-based QSAR approaches; many researchers are. We discussed why there has…
This article explores the psychological barriers and risks of cognitive biases to R&D decision-making. It contrasts current practice with the use of evidence-based medicine by healthcare practitioners. It touches on how computational tools, such as StarDrop‘s integrated suite of discovery software, can help support good decision making in drug discovery.
