Medicinal Chemistry and Drug Development describes the key events and roles of medicinal chemistry in the discovery and development of lead compounds into drugs (including target identification). It achieves this by using 30 case studies.
- Provides unique information on different drug development case studies
- Integrates pharmaceutical knowledge, mainly medicinal chemistry, with new drug development thinking
- Describes, using case studies, the impact of key events in drug development on drug efficacy
