X. Simon Wang, PhD, Assistant Professor at the Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences at the College of Pharmacy at Howard University and Director of the Molecular Modeling and Drug Discovery Core Laboratory at the DC D-CFAR, has published three articles featured in Methods and the Journal of Chemical Information and Modeling. The publications were funded in part by his DC D-CFAR NIH Administrative Supplement Grant for US-China Biomedical Collaborative Research on Cancer, Allergy, Immunology and Infectious Diseases including HIV/AIDS and its Co-morbidities. The articles are:
- "Benchmarking methods and data sets for ligand enrichment assessment in virtual screening"
