Today, you learned about regression methods and how they are used in computer-aided drug design (CADD). Regression methods are statistical techniques that model the relationship between a dependent variable (such as the activity of a compound against a target protein) and one or more independent variables (such as the chemical features of the compound). Regression […]

Infectious diseases are caused by microorganisms such as viruses, bacteria, fungi, and parasites that invade and multiply in the host organism. They are a major threat to human health and well-being, especially in developing countries where they account for a large proportion of morbidity and mortality. Infectious diseases are also constantly evolving and adapting to

Multiple sequence alignment (MSA) is a technique used in bioinformatics to compare and analyse the similarities and differences between three or more biological sequences. The sequences can be DNA, RNA, or protein sequences. MSA is an essential tool for studying the evolutionary relationships between different species and identifying conserved regions in the sequences. Why is
