Dear Colleague,

Earlier this year, *Instruct Spain* (I2PC, Madrid) launched a new 
*Structure-Based Virtual Drug Screening 
service*<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://instruct-eric.org/platform/-structure-based-virtual-drug-screening-i2pc-madrid-spain/__;!!Mih3wA!ARkRVKqCOnWG1H3VouHNGpYnKaCfLVqvcAKksMnkF6EOY6fuJ8hNMJ5I_SvVfs_YoRBavLlt9qeiWe0xRA$ >, 
now officially available through the *Instruct-ERIC platform*.

Accessible both remotely and on-site, this *Scipion-Chem* pipeline 
allows you to use 3D atomic structures (Cryo-EM, X-ray, NMR) to:

 1. Find Druggable Pockets: Automatically detect and analyze potential
    binding sites.
 2. Predict Drug Binding: Run docking campaigns using your molecules
    libraries or our different curated datasets of compounds.

To help you integrate this new infrastructure into your research, we are 
hosting a *Practical Course on Virtual Drug Screening 
(VDS)*<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://i2pc.es/instruct-course-on-virtual-drug-screening-vds-madrid-november-2026/__;!!Mih3wA!ARkRVKqCOnWG1H3VouHNGpYnKaCfLVqvcAKksMnkF6EOY6fuJ8hNMJ5I_SvVfs_YoRBavLlt9qclavkSuw$ >designed 
for researchers at any stage of their career who are interested in 
incorporating VDS and Drug Discovery into their research.

*When*: November 10 -12, 2026

*Where*: National Center for Biotechnology CNB-CSIC, Madrid (In-person)

*Key Topics*: The course will focus on covering screening pipelines, 
ligand filtering, lead optimization, and Molecular Dynamics using 
programs such as AutoDock, P2Rank, and OpenMM.

Registration will be open until *_October 16, 2026_* at 12:00PM.  You 
can fill your registration *here*<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://forms.gle/pfMWvgrU2sKKBrt49__;!!Mih3wA!ARkRVKqCOnWG1H3VouHNGpYnKaCfLVqvcAKksMnkF6EOY6fuJ8hNMJ5I_SvVfs_YoRBavLlt9qeWXqXeTQ$ >.

Seats are limited, so early registration is encouraged.

With best Regards
