Notes to Authors

The MOL2NET conference runs both online (general sections) and/or in person (associated workshops); no physical presence is needed for online participation saving traveling costs. We accept experimental works, theoretical works, or experimental-theoretic works in the areas mentioned. Proceedings will be Published Online, Open Access, and Totally Free of Charges (no cost). For details about in person (face-to-face) participation on associated workshops contact the respective members of the local committees.

Before to submit your communication recommend to download and use the template file below to write your communication; we strongly recommend you to read carefully the following notes to participants about publication model, copyright, authors responsibilities, etc.

Before to submit your work be aware that the works published here belongs to two main modalities preliminary communications or comments on previous works.

Preliminary communications are not post-print journal papers. In this sense, committee and/or external reviewers check only scope and apparent scientific soundness. They have the same editorial process than for an online Preprint service. Therefore, all works receive doi number and are indexed in databases (GoogleScholar, Publons, etc.).The works may receive also comments from registered participants (public post-publication review). The authors are encouraged to submit their works to a peer-reviewed scientific journals of MDPI or other editorials during or after finalization of the conference, as per SciForum copyright rules.

Research Highlights are comments on previous works, they are short notes devoted to comment about the more interesting points, update some topics, highlights, etc. of works previously published by the authors or other groups. In this case, committee and/or external reviewers check also only scope and apparent scientific soundness. The works may receive also comments from registered participants (public post-publication review).

In any case, it is the duty and responsibility of the authors solely, to ensure the veracity of the contents, checking similarity to other works, and carry out a proper citation of previous works. The committee is not responsible of this previous aspects in this publishing modality. In this sense, we strongly recommend the authors to use online text-similarity checking services to avoid any form of plagiarism or copyright violation. The authors may be requested to modify the communication (re-write their texts) in the case that high similarity is detected and reported to the committee. In these cases, the manuscript could be put on standby or withdrawn temporarily until the authors re-submit the proper version. The authors are also allowed to submit short reviews, comments, letters, or discussions of papers already published if they guarantee sufficient difference to previous public contents.

sciforum-016259	*"In silico" estimation of encapsulation-induced pK_a shifts in drugs.* Diogo Reis, Miguel Machuqueiro, Diogo Vila-Viçosa Submitted: 15 Dec 2017 Abstract: Show Abstract	Diogo Reis, Miguel Machuqueiro, Diogo Vila-Viçosa	Show Abstract
Molecular machines have recently been associated with the development of molecular carriers to enhance drug properties, such as solubility or bioavailability. One possible approach is the drug encapsulation by a host molecule, such as cucurbituril (CB) rings, modifying the environment of the guest molecule. CB rings are able to encapsulate guest molecules providing a hydrophobic cavity and several carbonyl groups that stabilize cationic hosts that interact with this region. This will result in significant pK_a shifts for drugs with titrable (cationic) groups that can be exploited in order to improve drug bioavailability, whether by enhancing their solubility, stabilizing their active form or by protecting them against external agents. This approach can be used for medical targeting, such as cancer therapy, by designing carriers that deliver guest molecules at specific conditions, knowing the target properties. Computational tools are a powerful way to help the rational design of CB-guest complexes. In particular, the stochastic titrations constant-pH MD (CpHMD) method allows a molecular dynamics simulation to have the pH value as an external parameter and, consequently, obtain full titration curves and pK_a values. The main goal here is to develop a strategy to model benzimidazole (BZ) pK_a shifts, our «proof-of-concept» molecule, and then extrapolate this process to other host-guest complexes. BZ has a well-known shift of ~3.5 pK_a units when encapsulated by a CB ring and, with the refinement and fine tuning of this process, it is possible to elucidate the molecular details of these host-guest interactions. We acknowledge financial support from FCT through project UID/MULTI/00612/2013 and grant SFRH/BPD/110491/2015.
sciforum-015470	*4,6,6-trimethylbicyclo [3.1.1] hept-3-ene: Analysis of the Inhibitory Effect of Monoterpere on Pseudomonas aeruginosa* Strain** Ticiane Farias, Letícia de Eduardo, Siluana Ferreira, Zilka Lima, Sávio Ferreira Submitted: 14 Nov 2017 Abstract: Show Abstract	Ticiane Farias, Letícia de Eduardo, Siluana Ferreira, Zilka Lima, Sávio Ferreira	Show Abstract
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a ubiquitous gram-negative non-fermentative bacterial species that exhibits natural resistance to some antibiotics and antiseptics, in addition to having a high expression of virulence factors, being responsible for causing, mainly, opportunistic infections in the hospital environment. It affects the respiratory tract causing about 80% of hospital pneumonias, being able to reach skin, soft tissues, eyes, ears, bones and the urinary tract. The treatment of nosocomial infections caused by P. aeruginosa is based on several classes of drugs, such as: Cephalosporins, Carbapenems, Aminoglycosides, among others. However, studies point to the existence of multiresistant species, including reserve drugs, such as imipenem, thus generating a public health problem. In addition, this year the World Health Organization has released a list of ten challenging multi-resistant microorganisms that require new antibiotics, and secondly the species Pseudomonas aeruginosa carbapenem-resistant. Given this panorama of bacteria resistant to multiple commercially available antibiotics, it is necessary to study new compounds with antibacterial activity. As a possibility to combat bacterial infections, the action of a natural product, the positive enantiomer of 4,6,6-trimethylbicyclo [3.1.1] hept-3-ene, also known as (+) - α-pinene, before the Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain ATCC 27853, using methodologies standardized by the Manual Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute. Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC), Minimum Bactericidal Concentration, and Nature Classification of Compound Effect were determined according to CBM/MIC ratio. The (+) - α-pinene was dissolved in 1% Tween 80, 5% DMSO and distilled water. In broth microdilution, the MIC was determined for the P. aeruginosa strain, at a concentration of 40 μL/mL, being characterized as bacteriostatic and the concentration 4 times higher than MIC was demonstrated to be bactericidal. This experiment made it possible to observe the action of the phytoconstituent on the species of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, emphasizing the need for permanent studies to determine the mechanism of action and toxicity of (+) - a - pinene allowing its future use against opportunistic infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
sciforum-016034	A Combined Approach of Ligand-based and Structure-based Virtual Screening to select structures with potential antichagasic activity from SISTEMATX sesquiterpene lactones database. Chonny Herrera-Acevedo, Luciana Scotti, Marcus Tullius Scotti Submitted: 04 Dec 2017 Abstract: Show Abstract	Chonny Herrera-Acevedo, Luciana Scotti, Marcus Tullius Scotti	Show Abstract
Chagas disease is an endemic disease caused by Trypanosoma cruzi, which affects more than eight million people, mostly in the Americas. A search for new treatments is necessary to control and eliminate this disease. Sesquiterpene lactones (SLs) are an interesting group of secondary metabolites characteristic of Asteraceae that have presented a wide range of biological activities. From the ChEMBL database, we selected a diverse set of 4,452, 1,635 and 1,322 structures with tested activity against the three T. cruzi parasitic forms, amastigote, trypomastigotes and epimastigote, respectively, to create random forest (RF) models with an accuracy of greater than 74 % for cross-validation and test sets. Afterwards, a ligand-based virtual screen of the entire SLs of Asteraceae database stored in SistematX (1,306 structures) was performed. In addition, a structure-based virtual screen was also performed for the same set of SLs using molecular docking. Finally, using an approach combining ligand-based and structure-based virtual screening along with the equations proposed in this study to normalize the probability scores, we verified potentially active compounds and established a possible mechanism of action.
sciforum-014363	A Simple Method to Classification α-Amylase and α-Glucosidase Inhibitors Using LDA and Decision Trees Karel Diéguez-Santana, Oscar Rivera-Borroto, Amilkar Puris Caceres, Gerardo Casañola-Martin Submitted: 26 Sep 2017 Abstract: Show Abstract	Karel Diéguez-Santana, Oscar Rivera-Borroto, Amilkar Puris Caceres, Gerardo Casañola-Martin	Show Abstract
In this report are used two datasets involving the main antidiabetic enzymes targets α-amylase and α-glucosidase. The prediction of α-amylase and α -glucosidase inhibitory activity as Antidiabetic Agents is carried out using LDA and classification trees (CT). A large data set of 640 compounds for α-amylase and 1546 compounds in the case of α-glucosidase are selected to develop the tree model. In the case of CT-J48 have the better classification model performances for both targets with values above 80- 90% for the training and prediction sets, correspondingly. The best model shows an accuracy higher than 95% for training set; the model was also validated using 10-fold cross-validation procedure and through a test set achieving accuracies values of 85.32% and 86.80%, correspondingly. The main descriptors that influence the inhibitory activity of the antidiabetic enzymes are interpreted. Additionally, the obtained model is compared with other approaches previously published in the international literature showing better or goodness results. Finally, we can say that, the present results provided a double target approach for increasing the estimation of antidiabetic chemicals identification aimed by double-way workflow in virtual screenings pipelines
sciforum-015871	A brief account of the search for peptide vaccines Subhas Basak, Ashesh Nandy Submitted: 26 Nov 2017 Abstract: Show Abstract	Subhas Basak, Ashesh Nandy	Show Abstract
An increasing trend of viral diseases have led to search for faster response systems for preventives and therapeutics. While traditional vaccinations have led to spectacular successes against smallpox and polio viruses, the need for rapid response to new viral epidemics, like in the case of Ebola and Zika viruses, has called for new ways of tackling such infections. The fact that viral diseases are notoriously difficult to control, due primarily to their nature of fast mutational changes leading to growth of new strains and development of strains resistant to prevailing medications, adds an extra layer of complexity to the task. Peptide vaccines provide one means of responding to the epidemics. Since they are developed based on the viral sequences and focused on the antigenic sites, peptide vaccines are amenable to rational design paradigms. The first such vaccine for the canine parvovirus was developed in the 1980s and many peptide vaccines against human viral diseases are under different stages of phase trials. While production of such vaccines can be fast and cost-effective, and there are several issues still to be resolved, peptide vaccines are expected to play a major role in the future. In this very bried review we recount current status and some of the different approaches to design of peptide vaccines.

Dear colleagues worldwide, we invite you to join us at WCUCW-01 West Coast University Capstone Workshop, 2017, Miami, FL, USA. This is the Capstone workshop for West Coast University (WCU), Miami, FL, USA. This workshop series held each academic term is devoted to fostering both education and research in multidisciplinary sciences. Nursing students completing their General Education courses at WCU form groups of three and take on the roles of scientist, medical researcher, or public health professional, all of them approaching an assigned topic from their field of expertise. They are each required to devise a study on their topic, pretend to conduct it, generate logical data to support a hypothesis, write an academic paper sharing their findings, and defend their data in a presentation.The workshop education goals focus on professors and students in the WCU Miami campus Capstone course. However, we also welcome researchers and students from other nationwide WCU campuses and researchers from other institutions around the world.

The Capstone workshop is associated with MOL2NET-03 International Conference on Multidisciplinary Sciences, MDPI Sciforum, Switzerland, HQ UPV/EHU, Bilbao, Spain. It will therefore run both online and in person. The workshop runs online at the platform SciForum maintained by the editorial MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.It runs in person at WCU, Miami campus, during the Capstone course. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: Multidisciplinary Science (all areas), Health Science (all areas), Chemistry (all areas), Biology and Life Sciences (all areas), Environmental Science (all areas), Social Sciences (all areas), Biomedical Engineering, Mathematics (Applied), Data Analysis, Education. See the following note to authors on topics outside the scope of the conference and associated workshops [Note on topics].

Notes to Participants

To see a detailed schedule of this workshop/section and of the entire conference follow this link:[MOL2NET workshops schedule]

Preliminary communications are not post-print journal papers. In this sense, committee and/or external reviewers check only scope and apparent scientific soundness. They have the same editorial process as for an online Preprint service. Therefore, all works receive DOI numbers and indexed in GoogleScholar. The works may also receive comments from registered participants (public post-publication review). The authors are encouraged to submit their works to peer-reviewed scientific journals of MDPI or other editorials during or after finalization of the conference, as per SciForum copyright rules.

Comments on previous works are short notes to comment about the more interesting points, highlights, etc. of works previously published by the authors or other groups. In this case, committee and/or external reviewers also only check the scope and apparent scientific soundness. The works may also receive comments from registered participants (public post-publication review).

After publication of papers is closed, we shall open the online platform, and the authors (professors, researchers, and students) will be able to post online comments, questions, and/or answers to comments in this workshop/section and also in the other general sections and/or >10 international workshops of the MOL2NET conference. (Many of them also run both online and in person.)

We strongly recommend that you carefully read the following notes to participants about publication model, copyright, authors’ responsibilities, etc. Be aware, it is the author’s responsibility to ensure the veracity of the contents(checking similarity to other works) and to carry out a proper citation of previous works. The committee is not responsible of these aspects in this publishing modality. We therefore strongly recommend the authors to use online text-similarity checking services to avoid any form of plagiarism or copyright violation. The authors may be requested to modify the communication (re-write their texts) in the case that high similarity is detected and reported to the committee. In these cases, the manuscript could be put on standby or withdrawn temporarily until the authors re-submit the proper version. The authors are also allowed to submit short reviews, comments, letters, or discussions of papers already published if they guarantee sufficient difference to previous public contents.

USINEWS-01; US-EU India Worldwide Science Workshop Series, UMN, Duluth, USA, is aimed to become a reference international science workshop series. USINEWS series focused on the interchanges of ideas among India researchers working in India or abroad (U.S., Europe, etc.) with colleagues from other countries across the world. In fact, this workshop (formerly known as INDOWSCI) have headquarters in USA, Europe, and India. Consequently, you should consider both university of University of Minnesota, MN, USA and Netaji Subhas Institute of Technology, New Delhi, India (see chairpersons below) as the two main host institutions. In Europe, professors endowed by IKERBASQUE, Basque Foundation for Sciences and the University of Basque Country (UPV/EHU), are the main supporters and in charge of online publication headquarters.

The foundations of this workshop are in the multiple collaborations of Professors / Researchers of Indian researchers like Dr. Suhbash C. Basak, University of Minnesota, USA, Prof. Kunal Roy, Jadavpur University, Dr. Shameer Khader, Philips Healthcare, Cambridge, MA, USA, with their international colleages at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU), University of Coruña (UDC), University of Basque Country (UPV/EHU), IKERBASQUE, Basque Foundation for Sciences, and many other institutions in US-EU, India, and other countries.

The workshop is inspired on the Indo-U.S. Workshops series organized by Dr. Suhbash C. Basak during many years, as example of multicultural melting pot devoted to promote interdisciplinary collaborations in science. The works on this initiative started in 1990; the first event was organized in 1998 at Visva Bharati University, West Bengal, India. The Lecture Series was mainly to train young scholars. The third line of events was geared to benefit the South American scientists and young scholars. Two events have been held in Colombia. Some reports of these workshops are: [J. Chem. Inf. Comput. Sci., 1999, 39 (2), pp 179–179], [J. Chem. Inf. Comput. Sci., 2001, 41 (3), pp 479–479], [J. Chem. Inf. Model., 2006, 46 (1), pp 1-1], These workshops included:

(1) Indo-US Workshop on Mathematical Chemistry Series, beginning in 1998 in India and having six more events both in USA and India

(2) Indo-US Lecture Series on Discrete Mathematical Chemistry, four events mainly focusing on the training of young scholars.

(3) Mathematical Chemistry Workshops of the Americas (involving countries of North and South Americas)

USEINWSCI workshop series is associated to MOL2NET-03 International Conference on Multidisciplinary Sciences, MDPI Sciforum, Switzerland, HQ UPV/EHU, Bilbao, Spain.

They have the same editorial process than for an online Preprint service. Therefore, all works receive doi number and are indexed in databases (GoogleScholar, Publons, etc.).The works may receive also comments from registered participants (public post-publication review). The authors are encouraged to submit their works to a peer-reviewed scientific journals of MDPI or other editorials during or after finalization of the conference, as per SciForum copyright rules.

Comments on previous works are short notes to comment about the more interesting points, highlights, etc. of works previously published by the authors or other groups. In this case, committee and/or external reviewers check also only scope and apparent scientific soundness. The works may receive also comments from registered participants (public post-publication review).

In any case, it is the authors responsibility, to ensure the veracity of the contents, checking similarity to other works, and carry out a proper citation of previous works. The committee is not responsible of this previous aspects in this publishing modality. In this sense, we strongly recommend the authors to use online text-similarity checking services to avoid any form of plagiarism or copyright violation. The authors may be requested to modify the communication (re-write their texts) in the case that high similarity is detected and reported to the committee. In these cases, the manuscript could be put on standby or withdrawn temporarily until the authors re-submit the proper version.

08. LAWSCI-01: Challenges in Law, Technology, Life, and Social Sciences, UPV/EHU, Bilbao, Spain, 2017

MOL2NET2017, LAWSCI01

[SUBMIT HERE] (Select MOL2NET Conference, Section LAWSci)

Dear colleagues worldwide,

We are glad to invite you to participate in the workshop LAWSci, Challenges in Law, Technology, Life, and Social Sciences. This workshop will be held from 25-30 Oct, 2017, online at Sciforum platform. This is a workshop associated to the MOL2NET International Conference Series on Multidisciplinary Sciences, MDPI Sciforum, Switzerland, HQ UPV/EHU, Bilbao, Biscay, Spain.

LAWSci workshop series promotes multidisciplinary collaborations and debate in the frontiers of Law, Technology, Life, and Social Sciences. The interaction between bio-science and ICTs has forged great developments in many fields. However, the appreciation of these discoveries is sadly, all too often, accompanied by a lack of understanding of the legal implications. This conference series aims to provide a reference to the various legal avenues that are available for the protection of scientific advances, but also the legal instruments to protect society from unwanted effects. It constitutes a study of some of the legal implications of bioscience and ICT advances, weighing their impact on society and the law's role in shaping that effect.

In this sense, the presentations will be focused on legal trends in different fields covering, but not limited to: patentability in plants and human genomics, clinical procedures’ standards, patients’ personal data protection, informed consent, regulatory issues in drug discovery, biomedical research legislation, toxicology, medico-legal problems such as healthcare malpractice, medical insurance or ethics in medical practice, software protection in chemo-informatics, bioinformatics, medical informatics, and social sciences, taxes in the biotechnology industry and causality/liability in environmental pollution, criminology, etc. The conference will run on-line and free, saving traveling and participation costs (subscriptions, open publication, participation in forum, certificates, etc., are free of cost).

Publication Model and Authors Responsibility:

Before to submit your work be aware that the editorial process is the same than for a PREPRINT service. Therefore, all works receive doi number and are indexed in databases (GoogleScholar, Publons, etc.). However, the works published here are preliminary communications and not post-print journal papers. In this sense, committee and/or external reviewers check only scope and apparent scientific soundness. The works may receive also comments from registered participants (public post-publication review). The authors are encouraged to submit their works to a peer-reviewed scientific journals of MDPI or other editorials during or after finalization of the conference, as per SciForum copyright rules.

In any case, it is the responsibility of the authors, to ensure the veracity of the contents, checking similarity to other works, and carry out a proper citation of previous works. The committee is not responsible of this previous aspects in this publishing modality. In this sense, we strongly recommend the authors to use online text-similarity checking services to avoid any form of plagiarism or copyright violation. Some workshops in this conference series use specialized services to checked for possible text similarity. For instance, MODEC is using the official account of their organizing university for URKUND web server. Please, be aware that the authors may be requested to modify (re-write their texts) the communication in the case that high similarity is detected and reported to the committee. In these cases, the manuscript could temporarily withdrawn until the authors re-submit the proper version. The authors are also allowed to submit short reviews, comments, letters, or discussions of papers already published if they guarantee sufficient difference to previous public contents.

10. EJIBCE-01; Meeting of Young Researchers in Structural Computational Biology, UC, Coimbra, Portugal, 2017

EIJCBE-01

[REGISTER/LOG IN TO SUBMIT NEW ABSTRACT OR COMMUNICATION HERE]

About

The Meeting of Young Researchers in Structural Computational Biology (EJIBCE 2017) aims at bringing together the Portuguese scientific community working in the field in a free-of-charge meeting, to provide a forum for discussion and sharing with no strings attached. This third edition builds on the success of previous editions in Porto, Lisbon, Coimbra and Oeiras, which gathered ca. 60 participants and had over 10 oral communications in each edition.

Mission & Objectives

Given the current economic situation in Europe, and particulaly in Portugal, it is increasingly harder to obtain funding and have an optimistic approach to science and collaborations. Besides, the recent austerity measures put in place by the Portuguese government led many researchers to join groups and institutes abroad, and eventually lose touch with the Portuguese scientific community and developments.

After obtaining a doctoral degree or finishing a postdoctoral appointment, many Portuguese scientists abroad look back to their country looking for an opportunity to continue their careers and contribute to the development of Portuguese science. Others wish to remain abroad, but at the same time reach out to the Portuguese community and cultivate stronger ties to its researchers. However, what groups are there on Computational Structural Biology? What do they actually focus on? Are they open to collaborations?

This meeting was created in order to answer these and other similar questions. Its main goal is to provide a simple no-frills environment where Portuguese researchers in Computational Structural Biology, active both in Portugal and abroad, can meet and get to know each other’s research and ambitions. Ultimately, we hope that in doing so, we will be able to stimulate new collaborations and broaden the horizons of the Portuguese community of Computational Structural Biologists.

EJIBCE 2017

EJIBCE 2017 builds up on the format of previous editions, focusing on a small number of oral communications interspersed with several breaks to encourage discussion and exchange of ideas. Throughout the day, 11 researchers will present their results. Seven will be selected from the submitted abstracts by the Scientific Committee, based on the quality and originality of the work, and will be given 15 minutes to speak, followed by a short discussion. The remaining 4 oral communications will be delivered by invited keynotes, who will be given 30 minutes to speak plus 10 for discussion. The program is available as a Google Calendar [Here].

This workshop is associated to the MOL2NET-03 International Conference Series on Multidisciplinary Sciences. This is a year-round conference series with multiple associated workshops worldwide (online and in person). In fact, This year’s edition will run both, in person at University of Coimbra Physic’s Department and online at the web platform SciForum maintained by the editorial MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. It means that, after publication of all papers of all the workshops associated to the conference we shall open the online platform and the authors of general sections and all workshops will be able to post online comments and/or answers to comments in this workshop/section and also in the other general sections and/or workshops. To see a detailed schedule of the conference follow this link [MOL2NET workshops schedule].

Guest Speakers

João Ribeiro received his diploma degree in Bioinformatics in 2009 from the Faculty of Biotechnology, Portuguese Catholic University, and his Ph.D. in Sustainable Chemistry in 2014 from the Faculty of Science, the Faculty of Pharmacy and the Institute of Biomedical Sciences Abel Salazar of University of Porto in association with the Nova Lisboa University, advised by Prof. Maria J. Ramos. During his Bioinformatics degree, he had the opportunity to combine Biology and Biochemistry with software development to produce user-friendly Bioinformatics tools. The pursuit for the integration of Biochemistry and software development followed João to his Ph.D studies, where he developed third-party tools (plugins) for the widely used molecular visualization program VMD, developed by Klaus Schulten’s Theoretical and Computational Biophysics (TCB) group. These plugins aimed to assist non-expert users of Computational Chemistry software at different stages of the computer-aided drug design process, such as molecular docking, protein mutagenesis and molecular dynamics simulation analysis. João joined the TCB group in 2014 to employ molecular dynamics simulation to study the cellulose degradation process for biofuel production while keeping the software development always present in his work. He is currently the main developer of the newest VMD plugin to assist MD novice users in the preparation, execution and analysis of MD simulations, QwikMD. This plugin smooths the initial learning curve imposed by the MD programs and allows more advanced users to speed-up tedious structure preparation procedures.

João M. Damas is a biochemist from background (Universidade de Lisboa, 2007) that decided to follow computational molecular biophysics. During more than eight years he was a researcher in the Protein Modelling laboratory (www.itqb.unl.pt/pm), under the supervision of Prof. Cláudio M. Soares, where he specialized in molecular dynamics and related techniques and applying them to understanding biomolecules at the molecular level. One year and a half ago, João joined Acellera Ltd. (www.acellera.com), a company focused on software and hardware solutions for computerized drug discovery, where he is a Researcher and Software Developer. He is one of the main developers and maintainers of HTMD, a Python package to prepare, handle, simulate, visualize and analyze molecular systems, as well as of other Acellera software, such as ACEMD, AceCloud, and AceFlow.

António Ribeiro is a postdoctoral researcher in bioinformatics and computational chemistry at the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI), in Cambridge. António finished his biochemistry master’s degree in 2009 at the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Porto. His master thesis was developed in the computational biochemistry group under the supervision of Professors Maria João Ramos and Pedro Fernandes, and focused on the application of computational methods (QM and QM/MM) to study chemical and enzymatic reactions. His PhD thesis, finished in 2013, was done in part at the same group, but also at the University of Calabria, with Professor Nino Russo. The thesis described the computational study of the catalytic mechanism of several enzymes, namely HIV-1 Integrase and Protein Phosphatase 5. After the PhD, António used other computational methods like virtual screening and free energy calculations to identify potential hit compounds for HIV-1 Integrase. Since June, 2016, he is part of Professor Janet Thornton’s group at the EBI, where he is developing a database of enzyme mechanisms and catalytic sites. This database (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/thornton-srv/m-csa/) will be used to understand enzymatic function and enzyme evolution.

João M. Martins graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Chemistry with the University of Porto in 2011, having started his work in computational structural biology during his undergraduate studies. He later obtained the degree of master in Chemistry from the same university, researching quantum chemistry and theoretical structural biology during his Master’s thesis work. Working under Prof. Kresten Lindorff-Larsen, he obtained the PhD degree in Biochemistry in 2017 with the Structural Biology and NMR lab (SBiNLab) of the University of Copenhagen. His work has been focused on protein-protein interfaces, hotspot theory and small molecule docking under the supervision of Irina Moreira while at the University of Porto and mutation studies through free energy perturbation and integration of experimental data in protein simulation. Currently, he works as a postdoctoral research scientist at the The Image Section of the University of Copenhagen computer science department. His research focuses on protein structure and function studies through machine learning and neural networks’ methods.
