Development and optimisation of computational tools for drug discovery

The aim of my PhD project was the development, optimisation, and implementation of new in silico virtual screening protocols. Specifically, this thesis manuscript is divided into three main parts, presenting some of the papers published during my doctoral work. The first one, here named CHEMOMETRIC PROTOCOLS IN DRUG DISCOVERY, is about the optimisation and application of an in house developed chemometric protocol. This part has been entirely developed at the University of Palermo - STEBICEF Department - under the guide of my supervisors. During the development of this part I have personally worked on the tuning and optimisation of the algorithm and on the docking campaigns to obtain molecul…
