Short description

The proposed book volume focuses on recent advances in drug designing tools and techniques, emphasizing their applications in the discovery of small molecule-based novel therapeutics for improved health care and a sustainable future. It covers cutting-edge methodologies, informatics approaches and their potential implications in developing drug molecules in tackling multi-drug resistant bacterial infections, viral infections and cancer. By addressing existing knowledge gaps in drug design protocols, this book aims to benefit stakeholders in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, academia, and research sectors.

Some of unique and key features of the book are as follows:
• Explores interdisciplinary approaches to designing novel therapeutics
• Provides methodologies and practical applications of new drug design
• Introduces advanced tools and techniques in computational drug design
• Covers a wide range of topics in advanced drug design and discovery
• Highlights the latest developments in rational drug design and discovery

Coverage
We invite potential contributors/ experts worldwide to submit their scholarly contributions to enrich this intended volume. This book will cover a wide range of topics in the latest advancements of drug design and discovery, including the following, but not limited to:

• Computational modeling, predictive tools and drug design
• Informatics and multi-omics approaches in drug discovery
• Databases, software and web-based resources in drug discovery
• AI/ML-based tools and approaches in drug design and screening
• Data mining and machine learning approaches in drug design
• Generative AI and predictive modeling in drug discovery
• Computational methods in predicting drug toxicity
• Phytochemical informatics, virtual screening and drug discovery
• In silico drug-likeness and pharmacokinetics profiling in drug design
• Computational target fishing approaches and drug discovery
• Target druggability assessment, molecular recognition and drug design
• Ligand similarity search, virtual screening and drug discovery
• Molecular design and scaffold hopping in drug design
• Pharmacophore-based approaches, screening and drug design
• Molecular simulations and free energy-based approaches in drug design
• Network-based approaches and multi-target drug discovery
• Knowledge mining and knowledge graphs in drug discovery
