An update on the use of molecular modeling in dendrimers design for biomedical applications: are we using its full potential?

Computational chemistry provides an invaluable set of tools to study dendrimers and their interactions with drugs and biological targets. There is a gap in the software development that is dedicated to study of these highly variable and complex systems that could be overcome by the integration of already established approaches for topology generation and open source molecular modeling libraries. Furthermore, it would be highly beneficial to collate already built 3D models of various dendrimers with corresponding relevant experimental data.
