Point to note:

Several studies have shown that the performance of most docking tools is highly dependent on the particular characteristics of both the binding site and the ligand to be investigated, and the determination which method would be more suitable in a specific context is difficult. We encouraged you to check several docking methods to determine which one(s) work best for your system.

Starting 15th July 2015, the position relates to a project specifically for in silico drug docking, screening, design, optimisation and linkage with active chemists.

Experience in many docking softwares and operating systems is essential.

Additional experience in bioinformatics and computational biology tools will be useful.
