COVID-19/Coronavirus Update Print

I'm glad to report that PyRx has been used to win Coronavirus Drug Discovery Competition. Congratulations and HUGE THANK YOU to Matt O'Connor who used deep learning techniques for molecule generation and PyRx to evaluate binding affinities (https://github.com/mattroconnor/deep_learning_coronavirus_cure). He identified Remdesivir as a potential COVID-2019 treatment, which Sage Health will be donating to the Wuhan institute of Virology for further analysis.

Happy to see that the free version is still working on Windows (since 2011), unlike Mac version, that gives me nothing but headaches. We do not plan to increase the price of PyRx anytime soon and hope that our website and the store will remain online during these troublesome times.
