JOURNAL OF COMPUTER-AIDED MOLECULAR DESIGN

The Journal of Computer-Aided Molecular Design provides a form for disseminating information on both the theory and the application of computer-based methods in the analysis and design of molecules. The scope of the journal encompasses papers which report new and original research and applications in the following areas:theoretical chemistry;computational chemistry;computer and molecular graphics;molecular modeling;protein engineering;drug design;expert systems;general structure-property relationships;molecular dynamics;chemical database development and usage.Contributions on computer-aided molecular modeling studies in pharmaceutical, polymer, materials and surface sciences, as well as other molecular-based disciplines, are particularly welcome.As of Volume 15, a number of issues per volume will be dedicated to Perspectives in Drug Discovery and Design and from time to time overviews will be included in `regular' JCAMD issues. Perspectives in Drug Discovery and Design was established to publish succinct overviews of current developments in the multidisciplinary area of drug discovery and design.The intended scope of Perspectives in Drug Discovery and Design is greater than that of specialty journals and draws from fields both central and supplementary to those of drug discovery and design. In each thematic issue invited experts provide recent developments, highlight opportunities and indicate current limitations concerning the use of computers in drug discovery and design.Articles are by invitation only from guest editors chosen for their overall expertise in the area, and are refereed in order to ensure the highest quality and breadth of coverage.

《计算机辅助分子设计杂志》提供了一种传播分子分析和设计中基于计算机的方法的理论和应用信息的形式。该杂志的范围包括报告以下领域新的和原始的研究和应用的论文：理论化学；计算化学；计算机和分子图形；分子模型；蛋白质工程；药物设计；专家系统；一般结构-财产关系；分子动力学；化学数据库的开发和使用。特别欢迎在制药、聚合物、材料和表面科学以及其他基于分子的学科的计算机辅助分子建模研究方面做出贡献。从第15卷起，每卷的一些问题将专门讨论药物发现和设计方面的观点，并且不时的概述将包括在“常规”JCAMD问题中。从药物发现和设计的角度出发，简要概述了药物发现和设计多学科领域的最新进展。药物发现和设计的预期视角范围大于专业期刊，并从药物发现和设计的中心和补充领域汲取。在每一个专题问题中，受邀专家提供最新进展，强调机会，并指出在药物发现和设计中使用计算机的当前局限性。文章只能由受邀的客座编辑根据他们在这一领域的总体专业知识来选择，并被推荐以确保最高的质量和覆盖范围。
