1SAP Innovation of drug discovery and medical treatment using supercomputer Fugaku

Wed. Sep 28, 2022 1:50 PM - 4:20 PM Room A (Hakodate Arena Budokan A)

Organizers:MitsuguAraki(Kyoto Univ.),Mitsunori Ikeguchi(Yokohama City Univ.)

共催:⽂部科学省「富岳」成果創出加速プログラム 「プレシジョンメディスンを加速する創薬ビッグデータ統合システムの推進」

Drug discovery and medical technologies are being innovated by development of high performance computing (HPC). Large-scale molecular dynamics simulations performed on supercomputer Fugaku permit atomic-level observation of “slow” biomolecular processes such as protein conformational transition and protein-drug interaction processes, providing deeper insight into molecular mechanisms of disease and drug design to overcome it. In this symposium, we will discuss about the forefront of next-generation molecular simulation techniques for drug discovery and medical treatment.
