Von der hinteren Coverseite

Molecular Design Provides an easy-to-read introduction to the principles and concepts of computer-assisted drug discovery. Written by leading experts in the field, this book is a must-have for students of biological and chemical sciences and for researchers working in drug discovery. Emphasis is on design techniques complemented by carefully selected practical examples and case studies.

Richly illustrated, the beginner is guided from first principles to state-of-the-art techniques in virtual screening and molecular design.

Thus, this monograph is considered to be of utmost importance, not only for the beginner and the experienced modeler, but also for all interested medicinal chemists, biochemists and biologists.
