I came to this course due to I realized prediction is needed for my research work due to I will need to screen ligand competitors to be an adjunct-therapy for infectious diseases. After when through so much procedure to obtained such information for test ligand, I think it is now possible for me to do it in my place. Unfortunately, this course only mentioned about known chemical structure, I will need to find another way on how to find my nucleotide sequence structure and docking the nucleotide to the protein of interest.

Overall was ok, suitable for a beginner who have very limited knowledge on in-silico drug designing like me. I could only suggest that the instructor should explain more on the functions in each software that we use or explain more on the reason why we're using that particular function. Thanks

I found that this workshop is useful for someone like me who lack of basic about the computational stuff. It being conduct step by step and can be easily understood. However, the duration can be shorten up to less than 5 days.
Universiti of Malaya, attended the program at BS 3-4 KDK, UM
Well-managed program. The speaker allowed the participant to give the ideas and discussed the things that could not be solved on time. Suggestion: The speaker should tell us the steps with the theoretical facts, so that the participants will understand it better without just remembering the command and algorithm. Besides, the instructor also need to prepare the precautions if the technical problems happen during the program for example: to fix the software and hardware problem, how and how. And in all, it was good. Congratulations :)

I love this practical training -- you have made the hands on virtual screening training simple but comprehensive. Thanks for sharing!
Universiti Putra Malaysia, attended the program at Universiti Malaya
Liked the 1st day presentation part where I got to hear and ponder about various questions raised by learners from different fields. Of course the workshop was a nice platform to get to know about the pharmaceutical side of chemistry, especially for me who is from a non-bio background.:) Drug designing part was fairly ok but with a lot of manual work like going to the folder again n again and writing the commands but any ways that was the methodology of the software.

This workshop gave me more understand towards the function of autodock in my research study. Besides that, I had opportunities to learn the difference knowledge because all the participants are come from difference background. In addition, drug discovery and technologies can help us to minimize the time taken in searching the suitable drug for the treatment.

Vaccine design eWorkshop is more organized and easier understandable than the previous program on dynamic simulation. However, the basic concept of insilico vaccine design wasn't covered to the best of my knowledge. I hope next time we will benefit more from you.

The NGS eWorkshop served as a wonderful introduction to the core theoretical concepts and current limitations in Next Generation Sequencing. The instructor was patient and very helpful and taught well. However, if the practical approach could be implemented, it would serve as a great improvement as it would enable the participants to experience how to perform NGS analysis.

This was a great opportunity to learn. The tools were very relevant. All instructions were very clear. The instructor was very polite and knowledgeable. Thank you for the opportunity to learn.
National public school
The Vaccine design Course was overall good, teacher was supportive. Kept asking us if we had any doubts. Started on time and ended on time. However I don't think 2 hours and a skype chat is sufficient for a person to go into much detail about the subject. I suggest that next time, detailed notes and explanation of every step be given in advance as that would save much time instead of asking the same questions on skype.

Learning NGS was really useful and informative for me. It helped to enhance my understanding in NGS. Hope more workshops in future. Thank you!
Bharathiar University
Name of the program: 7-day NGS workshop: 1- The trainer is very knowledgeable and can answer any question related to the topic. 2- I suggest that the next NGS training to be as a project-based learning workshop instead of sending theoretical information and YouTube videos via Skype. In other words, the training is better to be on a project related to the topic, and the trainer sends tasks gradually to the participants to be performed daily, then Q&A session for every task to answer all doubts. Briefly, like last year Drug discovery technology workshop which was very interesting and amazing.
International Islamic University Malaysia
Overall it was good. Bioinfo/analysis part was a little difficult to understand. The sessions would have been better if they have audio than text. That would have been more interactive. But very informative overall..for a starter.

I found the workshop very helpful as it will not only help in my PhD but also in future endeavours. Devadrita Dey Sarkar made many of doubts cleared in very easy way. Overall I found the workshop enlightening and helpful for me.
SRM University, Haryana, Centre for Drug Design Discovery & Development (C-4D)
The course contents and the tutor who taught are really good. I would like to mention that a video tutorial would have been lot better along with chat on Skype(to clear doubts), like the coursera workshops. It s really good to know that the tutors are extending their support to clear doubts if any, even after the workshop. Thank you for all the support.

I decided to join this workshop in order to get hands on experience in molecular docking. We are using network pharmacology based approaches to scientifically validate the Ayurvedic medicinal plants and formulations. In that we use docking as a validation tool for the data generated. This workshop was helpful in that aspect to get the hands on exposure. The positive things about the workshop were (1) one on one training that gave opportunity to understand the lessons well and clear the doubts, (2) introduced different tools/software that gave an idea how to select them based on the application and (3) the trainers showed the patience to clear the doubts. I felt it would have been excellent if the theory part was explained in a proper and organised way which was weak at many places. Also felt that it would have been useful if you had provided some video links to refer after the course hours. Also have the opinion that the fee of INR. 17000 only for modelling and docking was higher. Altogether it was a nice experience for the last 20 days and I thank all the trainers and the BD team! Wish the BD team all the best in your future endeavours!!!
Savitribai Phule Pune University
The Molecular Dynamic Simulation (MDS) training session was clear, well organized. Advantages: --The trainer was accurate in time. --Most of my questions and queries were clearly answered. Disadvantages: --The MDS outcome interpretation has not been explained clearly. --Also, the fee of the workshop is very expensive from my view. Comment: In overall, I am pleased with the workshop and I highly recommend this workshop to other colleague.

The online training for drug discovery has been an amazing experience for me. Its easily accessible and one can be a part of the training from any part of the world because it is conducted online. Understanding the basics of how actually molecules are selected to be in the run of being a potential drug in the future is all I ever wanted to learn and explore, and Biodiscovery group made it possible.
