The training is provided in two tracks: one for Medicinal Chemists and one for Computational Chemists. Training laptops are provided, but spaces are limited, so Cresset encourages you to register now to secure a spot. The formal portion of the meeting begins Thursday September 22nd and the program includes great presentations from our customers and collaborators at Monsanto, Eli-Lilly, and Isogenica, among others.

About Cresset Group Ltd
Cresset develops software for calculating and comparing the molecular Field characteristics of chemical compounds. Field technology uses the surface properties of molecules to evaluate their activities and properties, rather than relying on 2D structure similarity, which enables Cresset’s users to find more interesting, novel and relevant results than other methods. Cresset’s Fields provide a smarter, structure independent way of hit-finding, lead switching and lead optimization in drug discovery and other chemistry-based research projects. Cresset’s Field technologies have been successfully applied to a very wide range of target classes, with and without structural information, on over 100 projects for major pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. www.cresset-group.com
