4. HALF-DAY POST-CONFERENCE WORKSHOP A
Wednesday 2nd July 2014 I 08.30 – 12.30 I Marriott Regents Park Hotel, London, UK
In association with
Computational Approaches in ADMET
Overview of workshop:
About the workshop host:
Within the last few years there has been a step-change in the use
of computational approaches to examine biological processes. An
important challenge is to use these new approaches to better predict
drug action (both pharmacology and toxicology) as early in the drug
pipeline as possible
Dr Nick Plant has nearly 20 years’ experience researching
the coordination of cellular responses, which balance
the adaptation to altered chemical environments within
the body, while maintaining core body functioning.
His research has focussed on members of the superfamily of nuclear receptors, which act as ligandactivated transcription factors, sensing their cellular surroundings
and coordinating network responses. Utilising both small- and largescale computational approaches his lab aims to understand the
coordination of body responses to both external perturbations (e.g.
dietary and pharmacological) and during disease progression (e.g.
breast cancer), as well as feasibility studies towards the reconstruction
of the “silicon human”.
This workshop will cover both the theory of these new approaches, and
the application of them to a real test case. No previous experience in
computational modelling will be assumed!
Why you should attend:
Computational biology is a rapidly changing field, with new approaches
being developed every day. This workshop will help the non-specialist
understand what they can expect from such approaches, why these
approaches can be applied to ADMET and how they can apply them
to their own projects.
Note: Practical Session presume that attendees will have access to
a PC/tablet and Internet access. Practical Sessions will be run via the
network.
About The University of Surrey
The University of Surrey is a UK top-ten research intensive University

HALF-DAY POST-CONFERENCE WORKSHOP A
Wednesday 2nd July 2014 I 13.30 – 17.30 I Marriott Regents Park Hotel, London, UK
In association with
ADME for the Medicinal Chemist
Overview of workshop:
The session will begin an overview of the digestive system and relate
each organ to its corresponding ADME issue. An interactive workshop
will focus on routes of administration.
A second session will focus on permeability, Pgp and CYP 450 and
will be followed by a workshop where participants will explore the
literature to distil working solutions to recurrent medicinal chemistry
issues.
Why you should attend:
Medicinal chemists with up to 5 years in industry. Academics who wish
to acquaint themselves with key issues in the drug discovery process.
The session is suitable to graduates, PhD and Post Doctoral fellows and
assumes no prior knowledge. This workshop is not suitable for scientists
already versed in ADME.

About the workshop hosts:
Corinne read Organic Chemistry at Lyon University, France
(1984). She then joined Roche (1984-1990) as a medicinal
chemist where she was involved in the Trocade as well as
the Saquinavir projects. In addition, she played a key role
in establishing a Solid Phase Peptide and Oligonucleotide
synthesis facility in house. She then Joined Glaxo in 1990,
where she has worked on a number of Protease and GPCR drug
Discovery projects at various stages of lead discovery and lead
optimisation. Corinne then obtained a GlaxoSmithKline sponsored
PhD at the University of Cambridge (2000) having worked with Prof S V
Ley, FRS on the discovery of novel solid phase amine linkers. She then
joined Organon in 2001 where she became responsible for Medicinal
Chemistry training of staff and more recently founded Med-Simple,
a company specialising in applied Medicinal Chemistry training. She
is the author of over 45 publications, book chapters and reviews in
these areas. Her research interests include the design of chemical
libraries, peptide synthesis, solid phase synthesis and ADME.
About the organisation
Med-Simple was created in 2004 and provides tailor-made medicinal
chemistry courses for the pharmaceutical industry. In the spirit of the
