TEDxAsheville is today. Remember, you can watch it online at the Asheville Citizen-Times, and participate in an interactive blog with me as your host. See you there. Now, meet one of tonight’s presenters, Jeff Schmitt:
As a member of the leadership team of the American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists, Jeff created the Computational Drug Design Focus Group in an effort to promote research in making drug design more efficient through computer simulation. Jeff also spearheaded the development of the first operational scientific computing grid in the Southeast (http://www.gridtoday.com/04/0105/102447.html) and has pioneered the use of quantum molecular dynamics in drug discovery (http://www.biotk.com/news_details.php?id=147). Currently, Jeff continues work with his colleagues at Wake Forest University Health Sciences on the design of cancer therapeutics.
