Pharmaceutical Chemistry

Integrating Medicinal Chemistry into the Drug Discovery Process

Traditionally, “drug delivery” was a specialization in pharmacy for formulations of drugs. However, it is natural that organic, medicinal, materials, and nano chemistry have now become deeply involved in the development of drug delivery systems. These approaches have led to the creation of drug conjugates that are new chemical entities. The use of functional carbon nanotubes as well as designed polymers as a vehicle for drug delivery is a novel approach to drug discovery. Medicinal chemistry and pharmaceutical chemistry are disciplines at the intersection of chemistry, especially synthetic organic chemistry, and pharmacology and various other biological specialties, where they are involved with design, chemical synthesis and development for market of pharmaceutical agents, or bio-active molecules (drugs). The current meeting of chemistry conferences will be a multinational gathering and present majorareas such as Medicinal Chemistry, Pharmaceutical Sciences, Pharmaceutical Chemistry, Pharmaceutical Technology.
