Discovery of a Tat HIV-1 Inhibitor through Computer-Aided Drug Design

Drug Discovery Acceleration Using Digital Microfluidic Biochip Architecture and Computer-aided-design Flow

A Digital Microfluidic Biochip (DMFB) offers a promising platform for medical diagnostics, DNA sequencing, Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), and drug discovery and development. Conventional Drug discovery procedures require timely and costly manned experiments with a high degree of human errors with no guarantee of success. On the other hand, DMFB can be a great solution for miniaturization, int...

Computer Aided Drug Design: A Promising Approach for Drug Discovery

In the field of pharmaceutical sciences, the drug discovery is an interdisciplinary approach by which new potential drug candidates are discovered. Traditionally, new drug molecules were discovered through identifying the active principles from natural sources or by serendipitous discovery. But it was time consuming and expensive. As a result, in the last few years there has been a technologica...

Computer Aided Drug Design: A Novel Loom To Drug Discovery

Initially, the design of new drugs was based on the prototypical molecule, usually a natural product and making structural modifications. For designing of new drugs the understanding of the etiology of the disease and the structure of the receptor where the ligand (drug) will bind is very much important. Now a day, there is increasing computational power coupled with applicable software, has le...

Computer-aided drug discovery

Computational approaches are an integral part of interdisciplinary drug discovery research. Understanding the science behind computational tools, their opportunities, and limitations is essential to make a true impact on drug discovery at different levels. If applied in a scientifically meaningful way, computational methods improve the ability to identify and evaluate potential drug molecules, ...
