         A two-days  cloud-based hands-on  workshop
         focusing on  structure-based drug  designing
         was conducted. Participants gained practical
         experience  and in-person guidance  on
         how to  use the Maestro  GUI,  covering the
         organic molecule sketching, protein selection,
         preparation, and screening for hit identification
         of molecules against  therapeutic  targets.
         The workshop also offered  a brief  review  of
         the fundamental theory underlying molecular       No. of participants - 45
