Short description
Fragment-based drug discovery is a faster, cheaper, smarter way to do drug discovery. Emphasizing practical guidance, with procedures, case studies, practical tips, and contributions from industry, Fragment-Based Drug Discovery is a comprehensive guide to the techniques and practice of using fragments in drug screening. Featuring contributions from industry experts who have successfully set up an industrial fragment-based research program, this text offers essential advice to pharmaceutical and medicinal chemistry researchers, research directors, and managers in pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies.
