International Conference on Recent Trends in Structural Bioinformatics and Computer Aided Drug Design at Alagappa University

Alagappa University was established in the year 1985 by the Government of Tamilnadu, as envisioned by the great Philanthropist Padma Bhushan (Late) Dr.RM. Alagappa Chettiar is achieving Excellence in all spheres of Education, with particular emphasis on Pedagogy, Extension, Administration, Research and Learning (PEARL) by affording a Quality oriented Higher Education to the learners so that they are transformed into intellectually competent human resources that will help in the up-liftment of the nation to Educational, Social, Technological, Environmental and Economic Magnificence (ESTEEM). Our motto is “Excellence in Action”. The 440 acre green and lush campus houses Science, Arts, Management, and Education faculties with 39 Departments, 9 Centres and 2 Constituent Colleges on its campus. Besides, 40 Affiliated Colleges are located in the districts of Sivaganga and Ramanathapuram. The institution offers 158 programmes in the University Department catering to the educational needs of rural students. All programs in the University follow a Semester Pattern under Choice Based Credit System (CBCS) with Continuous Internal Assessment (CIA) to ensure quality education.

ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
The Department of Bioinformatics proudly announces the International Conference on “Recent Trends in Structural Bioinformatics and Computer Aided Drug Design” (ICSBCADD'2019) after successfully have conducted 11 years of National Symposia and Workshop on the theme of SBCADD. ICSBCADD'2019 intends to provide a global platform for thought-provoking deliberations with renowned experts in various facets of Bioinformatics and Drug Discovery. Mainly, leading Scientists and Academicians hailing from premier institutes will be enlightening on various prospects of protein/nucleic acid structures and their prominent role in the pathogenicity of diseases arising due to vector-borne (Malaria, Filariasis, Zika and Chikunguinya), immune compromised (AIDS), nosocomial infections or resulting from unhealthy lifestyle (Cancer, Diabetes, Hypertension and Cardiovascular diseases) which are an evading burden towards sustainability of human life. Advent of computational approaches and Structural Biology provides a common solution to address issues relating the identification of active biomolecules against the aforesaid diseases. Therefore, ICSBCADD'2019 will serve the purpose to bring indefinite solutions (cost-effective) in the forefront amidst the life-threatening disease burdens.
