One week online course
This course covers essential methods in drug discovery, including protein structure analysis, homology modeling, ligand design, and docking techniques. Topics such as binding energy estimation, QSAR modeling, pharmacophore modeling, and scaffold hopping are explored, along with real-world applications and live demonstrations. The course concludes with successful case studies in CADD.
Dr. Subrahmanyam Sappati has been a tenure-track faculty member at the Department of Physical Chemistry, Gdańsk University of Technology, Poland, since 2021.
His interdisciplinary research integrates biophysics, chemistry, and materials science, with a focus on molecular dynamics, proton transfer, and drug development. He has made notable contributions to understanding hydrogen bonding in antitubercular drugs, fluorescence dynamics in biomolecular complexes, and the development of carbon-dot-based sensors.
Currently, he leads a project investigating the structural specificities of fungal and human topoisomerase II to guide drug design. Earlier, he examined hydrogen bonding in the antitubercular drug bedaquiline and studied membrane dynamics at the Raman Research Institute (2020-2021).
In his first postdoctoral position (2019-2020) at IISER Thiruvananthapuram, he focused on force-field parameterization. Dr. Sappati earned his Ph.D. from IISER Pune in 2019, where he explored nuclear quantum effects in cancer inhibitors and Descriptors for Predicting Efficient Dye-sensitized Semiconductor Photocatalysts for Hydrogen Evolution Reaction.
