This table contains a list of some of the best drug discovery websites, online databases, and other online resources for drug hunters everywhere. If you have a suggestion for websites that we may have missed, let us know!
It's hard not to think about infectious diseases at the moment, but it's a great time to review the drug discovery literature. One area of drug discovery that has deep roots in infectious disease research is targeted covalent inhibition. Targeted covalent inhibitors form covalent bonds with discrete targets (as opposed to [...]
This table features a selection of some of the best books on drug discovery, as well as related topics such as pharmacology, toxicology, pharmaceutics, and biotech. While nothing can replace hands-on industry experience, a few books serve as valuable references and offer insights into the realities of drug discovery. We recommend this list as a useful technical resource or as an informative introduction to the broader field of drug discovery, beyond any single discipline.
Small-molecule drug candidates are increasingly falling “ beyond the rule of 5 ,” making oral administration more challenging. Optimizing a drug’s solid form can improve its solubility and bioavailability when further molecular modifications are prohibitive. This minireview covers solid form strategies for increasing the solubility and oral [...]
We’ll be reviewing 2021’s novel FDA drug approvals in a series of articles, starting with this high-level overview of the small molecule drugs approved by the FDA in 2021. You can find Part 2 on First-in-Class Small Molecules here and the 2021 Large Molecules series here . Our deep dive on Small Molecule Oncology Approvals is also live [...]
