MEDC 612	Organic Medicinal Chemistry I	Bob Moore
Starting date (MM/dd/yyyy) : Start of semester Ending date (MM/dd/yyyy) : End of semester
Day: TBA Time: TBA Place: TBA		Credit: 4
In addition to lectures attended jointly with professional students (Medicinal Chemistry 112, 122), advanced concepts are discussed in conference sessions, limited to graduate students. Prerequisite(s): Two semesters of organic chemistry or equivalent.

MEDC 819	Seminar in Medicinal Chemistry	Richard Lee
Starting date (MM/dd/yyyy) : Start of semester Ending date (MM/dd/yyyy) : End of semester
Day: TBA Time: TBA Place: TBA		Credit: 1
Participation in the presentation and exhaustive discussion of topics directly or indirectly pertinent to medicinal chemistry. Each semester for two semesters.

MEDC 824	Computer-Aided Molecular Design in the Development of Chemotherapeutic Agents II	John Buolamwini
Starting date (MM/dd/yyyy) : Start of semester Ending date (MM/dd/yyyy) : End of semester
Day: TBA Time: TBA Place: TBA		Credit: 3
This course is a combined lecture and computer laboratory sequel to MEDC 814. It is designed for students to learn the essential elements of quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) modeling and its applications in therapeutic agent design and drug development. It will cover both traditional 2D QSAR methods comprising property-based and 2D molecular structure-based techniques, as well as more recent 3D molecular structure-based QSAR methods like comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA). The use of multivariate analysis methods such as multiple linear regression (MLR), partial least squares (PLS, artificial neural networks (ANN), and genetic algorithms in QSAR will also be covered.
