Guidance Needed: Starting Point for AI-Based In Silico Analysis

Dear Colleagues,

I am Mike, a first-year Ph.D. student at the Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry. I have joined this website with the aim of integrating AI methods into my research on natural compounds through in silico analysis. My goal is to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of our scientific work by leveraging these modern techniques.

Could you please advise me on where to start learning about AI methods for in silico analysis, particularly focusing on natural compounds? What resources or tools would be most beneficial for a beginner like myself?

At the moment, I am focusing on QSAR analysis, but I will be glad if you suggest other relevant areas in which modern AI capabilities can be used.

Thank you very much for your time and consideration.
