  • Essentials of Global Health

    • 1st Edition
    • Babulal Sethia + 1 more
    • English
    This unique introduction to the essentials of global health has been constructed by medical students from all over the world through the help of Medsin (now Students for Global Health) and the International Federation of Medical Students’ Association (IFMSA). The global student and trainee author team, recruited and guided initially by Drs Dan and Felicity Knights (themselves students and officers of Medsin when work commenced), identified the key areas to be covered. Then the book they put together was edited by two experts in the field: Mr B Sethia and Professor Parveen Kumar.Royalties raised from this book go to a grant fund for student global health projects.

  • Vicinal Diaryl Substituted Heterocycles

    A Gold Mine for the Discovery of Novel Therapeutic Agents
    • 1st Edition
    • M. R. Yadav + 2 more
    • English
    Vicinal Diaryl-Substituted Heterocycles: A Gold Mine for the Discovery of Novel Therapeutic Agents draws together all of the key information about these compounds in one place for the first time. Following an informative overview of the importance of these structures to the discovery of potential therapeutic agents, the text goes on to outline the main compound types, with each chapter focusing on the activities of a different structure. Designed to support researchers by consolidating this important information in a single, practical guide, the authors hope to encourage further advancement and development in the discovery of novel therapeutic agents. As flexible building blocks for the production of novel compounds, vicinal diaryl-substituted heterocycles are a rich source of leads for the development of new drugs. Their adaptability means that they can be used to produce structures with a broad range of attractive characteristics, and a large number of vicinal diaryl-substituted heterocyclic compounds have already been synthesized and investigated by medicinal chemists as promising lead molecules.
