Abstract:
The field of drug discovery is extremely complex and ever changing, with new methodologies and technologies being introduced constantly. The following paper provides an introduction to the field as well as the cutting-edge work being done in it, with special attention paid to structure-based drug design. It also serves to introduce the speakers who will be presenting at the “computer-aided drug design” session of ICCN 2002.
