Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This issue will mainly focus on novel achievements in drug design and discovery and the elucidation of drug action and safety. Articles are sought which emphasize research on structure–activity relationships, investigations of biochemical and pharmacological targets of drug action, and correlations of structures with the mode of action of biologically active compounds.
The purpose of this Special Issue is to publish studies on the current developments in drug design, synthetic chemistry, virtual screening, combinatorial chemistry, drug targets, and the structure–activity relationship. Original research and review articles summarizing all aspects of medicinal chemistry using experimental and theoretical methods are welcome.
Dr. Małgorzata Jarończyk
