|
This paper at Molecules by Laurent Maveyraud, et al., "reviews theoretical and practical aspects as well as the pros and cons of using X-ray crystallography in the drug discovery process." |
|
There are many points covered including:
- The workflow of a rational drug design project
- How crystallographic fragment screening campaign process is "far more complicated because of the amount of data that is generated"
- The importance of automation for both "crystal preparation and handling, and for computing tasks"
- A brief discussion comparing other methods including serial Crystallography, cryo-EM, micro-ED, NMR, Neutron Crystallography
- And more

Request from IUCr - Modern Approaches and Tools for Teaching Crystallography |
|
IUCr Acta Crystallographica Section E is soliciting manuscripts "that can be used as educational materials so that the younger generation may benefit from the knowledge and expertise of experienced crystallographers." They are particularly interested in "articles based on experiences of teaching crystallography online and of how best to use some of the facilities available to access diffraction equipment remotely."
Learn more about this opportunity to share your knowledge and experience with those just starting their journey in crystallography.
