• IF you have no time to read please go to the SHORTLIST page
  
• Keywords: in silico drug design, virtual screening, bioinformatics, molecular interactions, ADME-Tox, docking, aa variations, chemical space, QSAR, binding pockets & hot-spots, data mining, machine learning, big data...
  
  
• Philosophy: Find the tools you need for your project
  
  
• How ? In the section Computational Biology and Chemistry about 3300 tools (online & standalone) & databases/datasets, collected over a decade, are organized in different tables. These tools assist drug discovery, chemical biology & research in the field of pathophysiology & precision medicine. Tools are grouped into 3 main categories: Chemoinformatics, Related tools and Bioinformatics. The same software/database can be in different tables. To make it easier, I tend to add tools directly in the shortlist page such as to have all at once
  
  
• History: ~500 links were first published by Villoutreix et al. in Curr Protein Pept Sci. 2007, 8:381-411 (I started to collect them for myself in 2002, Structural Bioinformatics: Methods, Concepts and Applications to Blood Coagulation Proteins, Current Protein and Peptide Science, 2002, 3, 341-364). When this site was launched in 2006, the focus was essentially on Virtual Ligand Screening and structural (3D) bioinformatics, thus the name VLS3D. Since then, some related topics have been added.
