Course objectives
The course is aimed at acquiring knowledge in the field of chemoinformatics. The objectives of the course are as follows: - To explain the concept of molecular structure (1D, 2D and 3D) and methods of its representation in computer. - To explain the most important chemoinformatics methodologies for dealing with the structures of small organic molecules (including their algorithms and complexity). - Explain how to work with and search databases of small molecules.
Learning outcomes
Upon successful completion of the course, the student will be able to: - explain the concept of chemoinformatics - describe the types of structure of molecules and their representations - describe basic chemoinformatics methodologies for working with small organic molecules (including their algorithms and complexity) and demonstrate their application with selected examples - search for structures of molecules in databases and visualise them - describe the methodology for generating structures of molecules using AI Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)
Syllabus
