We are in the cover of Nature Chemistry in March. The editors of Nature Chemistry selected the cover proposal made by Sergi, that represents an abstract deconstruction of dynamic undocking. The protein (Hsp90) is depicted in a customized surface mode. The change in the background and the “exploding” small molecules represent the action of steering out from […]

Read More →Due to the development of Undocking, Xavier Barril and Sergio Ruiz have appeared in UB press. This work has been recently published in the journal Nature Chemistry (http://www.nature.com/nchem/journal/vaop/ncurrent/full/nchem.2660.html) Link to the UB press release: http://www.ub.edu/web/ub/en/menu_eines/noticies/2016/12/001.html?

This conference, that brought up the state-of-the-art in chemoinformatics, was organized by the Molecular Graphics and Modelling Society and the Chemical Structure Association Trust. Sergio Ruiz was selected to present with the talk entitled “Dynamic Undocking and […]

Like the preceding editions, master students, PhD students and postdocs were brought together in order to share experiences and their work. Sergio’s presentation was entitled “Dynamic Undocking and the Quasi-Bound State as Tools for Drug Design”.
