0:00:26Completely different look on the thing. We were just few Ph.D. students
0:00:34but now we see differently and we can concentrate on
0:00:39the stuff which is important for the commerce.
0:00:43I hope we will, in time, become leaders on the market
0:00:49and bio IT.
0:01:08Good evening, everybody. My name is Vilem Ĺ ustr and we are Caversoft. We develop software
0:01:14for protein analysis and visualization.
0:01:17Proteins are extremely complex structures and their study is bases for protein engineering and drug
0:01:24design which is performed by pharma and biotech companies.
0:01:28The goal is to develop a new drug or a new chemical compound of some
0:01:32kind
0:01:33and traditionally, this is performed by doing thousands of experiments in laboratories.
0:01:40Well, increasingly
0:01:42it has become time consuming and expensive and it's a big problem for the pharma
0:01:47companies.
0:01:48To overcome the limitations,
0:01:50we have developed a software product based on prediction of protein behaviour and interaction.
0:01:56We estimated that it can save the companies around twenty thousand euro and a month
0:02:01of development time for their protein engineering products.
0:02:05While a small research group runs five to ten of such projects, big companies do
0:02:11dozens of them at once.
0:02:14Our software is integration of advanced visualization methods and tools for protein exploration, combined with
0:02:23analytical modules based on detection of voids and void space in proteins.
0:02:31Our product has been developed and tested with the protein engineering group from the Loschmidt
0:02:35Laboratories.
0:02:36We have been acknowledged worldwide among the community.
0:02:41Currently we have a beta version ready, which is being tested and our product, our
0:02:46basic version attracted four thousand five hundred users around the world.
0:02:52In the picture you can see
0:02:54institutions that already use Caver or have asked us for a commercial license.
0:03:01Thank you for your attention. We are Caversoft. We help to, we have to speed
0:03:06up the development of drugs and compounds. And to, if you want to know more
0:03:11about us, check our website and send us to the next round and the first
0:03:15place. Thank you.
