DAY 1
1. Open Babel http://openbabel.org/wiki/Main_Page
2. BuildQSAR BuildQSAR is a free program designed to help the QSAR practitioner on the task of building and analyzing quantitative models through regression analysis. The main part of the program is a spreadsheet, in which the user can enter with the data set composed by the structure definition of the compounds, one or more types of biological activity values and many physicochemical properties.
