Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Drug discovery is a structured process focused on finding and developing new medications to treat diseases effectively. It begins with identifying potential drug targets, which are specific molecules or biological pathways involved in disease processes. Researchers then screen large libraries of chemical compounds, searching for those that can interact with these targets in ways that either inhibit or enhance their function. Once promising compounds are identified, they undergo rigorous testing in laboratories and animal models to evaluate their safety, efficacy and potential side effects. Compounds showing positive results in preclinical studies advance to clinical trials, where they are tested in humans to determine their therapeutic effectiveness and safety on a larger scale. Advances in technologies such as high-throughput screening, genomic sequencing and computational modelling have significantly accelerated the discovery process. This book elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to drug discovery. It brings forth some of the most innovative concepts and elucidates the unexplored aspects of drug discovery. This book is a complete source of knowledge on the present status of this important field.
