Drug discovery and development is time-consuming and resource-intensive, motivating computational approaches such as diffusion models for de novo drug design. Many such models follow the structure-based drug design (SBDD) paradigm, generating molecules to fit a target binding pocket.
arXiv:2606. 01220v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Generating molecules that simultaneously satisfy drug-like properties and conform to the 3D structure of a target protein is a core challenge in structure-based drug design (SBDD).

arXiv:2607. 01105v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present SynLaD, a latent diffusion framework for small-molecule generation that unifies ligand-based drug design objectives (what to make) with synthetic accessibility (how to make it).

arXiv:2607. 08404v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Current computational approaches for drug design typically focus on generating molecules conditioned on specific targets or general molecular properties, often neglecting the influence of disease context on target behavior and therapeutic outcomes.

arXiv:2606. 02902v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) is increasingly applied to de novo molecular design, but choices in data, rewards, and evaluation can yield uneven performance across disease areas and chemotypes.
