Descripción

The Design and Development of Novel Drugs and Vaccines: Principles and Protocols presents both in silico methods and experimental protocols for vaccine and drug design and development, critically reviewing the most current research and emphasizing approaches and technologies that accelerate and lower the cost of product development. Sections review the technologies and approaches used to identify, characterize and establish a protein as a new drug and vaccine target, cover several molecular methods for in vitro studies of the desired target, and present various physiological parameters for in vivo studies. The book includes preclinical trials and research, along with information on FDA approval.

Puntos claves

  • Covers both in silico methods and experimental protocols for vaccine and drug development in a single, accessible volume
  • Offers a holistic accounting of how developments in bioinformatics and large experimental datasets can be used in the development of vaccines and drugs
  • Shows researchers the entire gamut of current therapies, ranging from computational inputs to animal studies
  • Reviews the most current, cutting-edge research available on vaccine and drug design and development

Reseñas

"I have read other books on clinical research, but none with the level of detail and particular focus on drug design (the computational drug design sections) that this one has. This book is very detailed-oriented from that standpoint, and it can certainly serve as a useful tool for those developing vaccines."—© Doody’s Review Service, 2021, Patrick J Scoble, PharmD(PJS Pharma Consulting LLC), reviewer, expert opinion
