Optimizing drug design - Soricimed
EF 2011-12
Résumé
We aim to develop improved computer simulation methods to predict the structure of peptides in collaboration
with Soricimed Biopharma Inc., a young drug development company based in Sackville, NB. The immediate
goal is to use insights from computer simulations to speed the development of a drug candidate that shows
promise in limiting cell proliferation, and thus may be useful against restenosis and certain cancers.
