Patrick,

 

I’m not aware of any graduate programs specifically for cheminformatics (others 
may have more knowledge or experience in this area).  If you have specific 
schools in mind, check out the research areas of the chem faculty; usually 
you’ll find 1 or 2 with interests that overlap with cheminformatics research.  
That’s how it worked for my M.S. (Rutgers University-Camden), at least.  
Biology departments might be worth a try, either on a molecular scale (e.g. 
conformational screening of protein ligands) or population scale (e.g. 
comparisons among several environmentally toxic compounds that could suggest a 
mechanism of toxicity).

 

Hope the grad school search goes well!

-Chris

Subject: [Rdkit-discuss] Cheminformatics Graduate School Recommendations?

 

Hi All,

I apologize if this is too far off topic, but I got a recommendation to ask 
here since this community is the most likely to know!

I'm about to graduate from my undergrad chemistry program and I'm looking for 
graduate schools. I started in traditional computational chemistry research, 
but have really loved the cheminformatics/datascience aspects of drug 
discovery. I'm hoping to ask the community if you all have any recommendations 
for academic labs (ideally US based) with interesting cheminformatics research?

I'm specifically interested in fingerprinting methods (encoding 
3D/conformational information), similarity search/clustering compounds at 
scale, and automation tools for QM calculations. But, I would be grateful to 
hear of any labs you think are doing great cheminformatics work!

All the best,

Patrick
