Evaluation of natural polyphenols and nucleoside analogues compounds as novel corona virus (SARS CoV-2) main protease (Mpro/ 3CLpro) inhibitors – An in silico docking and molecular dynamics simulation study

Dr. Snehasis Chowdhuri and Dr. Ashis Biswas from School of Basic Sciences have together formulated a project proposal for the identification of potential inhibitors of the novel corona virus (SARS CoV-2) main protease and submitted that against the special call on high performance computation support. The project has recently been approved by IIT Delhi High Performance Computing (HPC) facility for funding. The duration of this project is 3-6 months.
