Pharmacology in Drug Discovery

Mangaraju Gayatri

Pharmacology, the science underlying the interaction between chemicals and living systems, emerged as a definite discipline allied to medicine within the mid-19th century, when the essential principles of physiology and chemistry provided a framework for understanding how therapeutic drugs act. As a discipline, it grew out of the necessity to know and improve therapeutics, and this remains its main focus. Drug discovery is that the processes by which new candidate medications are discovered. The drug discovery program is a multidisciplinary effort closely linked with structural biology, integrative cell signaling, and neuroscience programs to explore new approaches for therapeutics.
