(in Polish) Zajęcia fakultatywne - Edytory chemiczne w pracy farmaceuty- teoria, praktyka i zastosowanie 1755-F3-ZF01

The lecture ‘Chemical editors in the work of the pharmacist - theory, practice and application’ aims to introduce pharmacy students to modern tools for the design and analysis of molecular structures. The most important chemical reaction editors and molecular visualisers used in pharmacy, such as ChemSketch, KingDraw or Avogadro, will be discussed. Students will learn how to use them, their functions to create structures, model reactions and predict properties of compounds. Particular emphasis will be placed on the applications of these tools in pharmaceutical documentation, drug interaction analysis and support of new agent research. As part of the practical sessions, participants will have the opportunity to work independently with selected software, enabling them to acquire the skills necessary for laboratory and industrial work.
