Recent Advancements in Medicinal Pharma
Current trends in Medicinal Pharma efforts are moving towards the more targeted approach and this is being revolutionized and enhanced by genomics and proteomics. Target identification and validation are the first key stages in this process. It involves demonstration of relevance and confirmation of target protein in a disease which can then be translated to animal models and this may involve the latest in expression techniques and gene targeting. Advances in Pharmaceutical Technology covers the principles, methods and technologies that the pharmaceutical industry uses to turn that candidate molecule into final drug form: optimizing the therapeutic performance of the molecule which includes designing, characterizing, testing the drug in clinical trials, and manufacturing the final product.
