Design methodsDesign methods are procedures, techniques, aids, or tools for designing. They offer a number of different kinds of activities that a designer might use within an overall design process. Conventional procedures of design, such as drawing, can be regarded as design methods, but since the 1950s new procedures have been developed that are more usually grouped together under the name of "design methods". What design methods have in common is that they "are attempts to make public the hitherto private thinking of designers; to externalise the design process".
User experience designUser experience design (UX design, UXD, UED, or XD) is the process of defining the experience a user would go through when interacting with a company, its services, and its products. Design decisions in UX design are often driven by research, data analysis, and test results rather than aesthetic preferences and opinions. Unlike user interface design, which focuses solely on the design of a computer interface, UX design encompasses all aspects of a user's perceived experience with a product or website, such as its usability, usefulness, desirability, brand perception, and overall performance.
Conception de médicamentLa conception de médicament, plus précisément conception de substance pharmacologiquement active plus connue sous sa dénomination anglaise Drug design est l'ensemble des processus nécessaires à l'élaboration d'un médicament. Dans l'industrie pharmaceutique, ces processus peuvent-être subdivisés et répartis en quatre phases ou étapes : La phase de recherche La phase de développement La phase clinique La phase de mise sur le marché Remarque : Les phases de recherche et développement sont communément dénommées R&D.

Protein fold classIn molecular biology, protein fold classes are broad categories of protein tertiary structure topology. They describe groups of proteins that share similar amino acid and secondary structure proportions. Each class contains multiple, independent protein superfamilies (i.e. are not necessarily evolutionarily related to one another). Four large classes of protein that are generally agreed upon by the two main structure classification databases (SCOP and CATH).
Modélisation moléculairethumb|Animation d'un modèle compact d'ADN en forme B|327x327px|alt=Modèle de l'ADN en forme B La modélisation moléculaire est un ensemble de techniques pour modéliser ou simuler le comportement de molécules. Elle est utilisée pour reconstruire la structure tridimensionnelle de molécules, en particulier en biologie structurale, à partir de données expérimentales comme la cristallographie aux rayons X. Elle permet aussi de simuler le comportement dynamique des molécules et leur mouvements internes.
Short linear motifIn molecular biology short linear motifs (SLiMs), linear motifs or minimotifs are short stretches of protein sequence that mediate protein–protein interaction. The first definition was given by Tim Hunt: "The sequences of many proteins contain short, conserved motifs that are involved in recognition and targeting activities, often separate from other functional properties of the molecule in which they occur. These motifs are linear, in the sense that three-dimensional organization is not required to bring distant segments of the molecule together to make the recognizable unit.
Molecular recognitionThe term molecular recognition refers to the specific interaction between two or more molecules through noncovalent bonding such as hydrogen bonding, metal coordination, hydrophobic forces, van der Waals forces, π-π interactions, halogen bonding, or resonant interaction effects. In addition to these direct interactions, solvents can play a dominant indirect role in driving molecular recognition in solution. The host and guest involved in molecular recognition exhibit molecular complementarity.
Conception de site webLa création et la conception de site web ou web design est la conception de l'interface web : l’architecture interactionnelle, l’organisation des pages, l’arborescence et la navigation dans un site web. La conception d'un design web tient compte des contraintes spécifiques du support Internet, notamment en matière d’ergonomie, d’utilisabilité et d’accessibilité. Le web design réclame donc des compétences en programmation, en ergonomie et en interactivité, ainsi qu'une bonne connaissance des contraintes techniques liées à ce domaine.
Sequence motifIn biology, a sequence motif is a nucleotide or amino-acid sequence pattern that is widespread and usually assumed to be related to biological function of the macromolecule. For example, an N-glycosylation site motif can be defined as Asn, followed by anything but Pro, followed by either Ser or Thr, followed by anything but Pro residue. When a sequence motif appears in the exon of a gene, it may encode the "structural motif" of a protein; that is a stereotypical element of the overall structure of the protein.
