MATLAB for Biologists Workshop

This is a 2-week online, mentor-guided internship where you’ll learn the fundamentals of molecular docking, protein-ligand interaction analysis, and virtual drug discovery. You’ll work hands-on with tools like AutoDock, PyRx, SwissDock, and PyMOL, guided by experts in bioinformatics and structural biology.

Anyone from BSc/MSc Biotechnology, Bioinformatics, Microbiology, Pharmacy, or Life Sciences background. No prior experience with docking tools is required — we start from basics.

No coding or programming knowledge is needed. The workshop is tool-based and focuses on practical applications using graphical user interfaces.

You’ll work with:

 

  • AutoDock Tools

  • PyRx

  • PyMOL

  • SwissDock

Yes, every participant who attends both days and completes the session tasks will receive an industry-recognized certificate of participation from Biopractify.

The program offers a blend of recorded lectures and live Q&A sessions. You can learn at your own pace and still interact with mentors during the scheduled doubt-clearing sessions.
