Overview

The primary mission of the Computational Chemistry Shared Resource (CCSR) is to accelerate the development of research projects and molecular therapeutics. The CCSR provides a wide array of proprietary and commercial services for drug screening, computational-based simulations and modeling of chemical and biological systems. Located on the Georgetown University Medical Center Campus, the CCSR offers specialized expertise to researchers in both academia and the biotech/pharmaceutical industry to:

  • Develop and test hypotheses in silico using novel technologies & strategies before executing costly experiments
  • Reduce the time and costs involved in drug development
  • Provide additional justification for experimental results obtained in the laboratory
  • Aid in the analysis, and communication of results for grant submissions, publications, and presentations to the scientific community.
