News | 09-03-2017

The scientific journal Nature Chemistry’s cover highlights the study of a research team of the University of Barcelona, which developed a new efficient computational method to identify new drugs. This new breakthrough brings an approach to face the discovery of molecules with biological activity, and thus complements the conventional tools to make advances in the rational design of drugs.

The distinguished study appearing on the cover of Nature Chemistry is led by the ICREA researcher Xavier Barril, from the Faculty of Pharmacy and Food Sciences and the Institute of Biomedicine of the University of Barcelona (IBUB). The study counts with the participation of the professor Francisco Javier Luque and the researcher in training Sergio Ruiz Carmona, from the mentioned faculty.
