The Design and Development of Novel Drugs and Vaccines (Enhanced Edition‪)‬

The Design and Development of Novel Drugs and Vaccines: Principles and Protocols presents both in silico methods and experimental protocols for vaccine and drug design and development, critically reviewing the most current research and emphasizing approaches and technologies that accelerate and lower the cost of product development. Sections review the technologies and approaches used to identify, characterize and establish a protein as a new drug and vaccine target, cover several molecular methods for in vitro studies of the desired target, and present various physiological parameters for in vivo studies. The book includes preclinical trials and research, along with information on FDA approval. Covers both in silico methods and experimental protocols for vaccine and drug development in a single, accessible volume Offers a holistic accounting of how developments in bioinformatics and large experimental datasets can be used in the development of vaccines and drugs Shows researchers the entire gamut of current therapies, ranging from computational inputs to animal studies Reviews the most current, cutting-edge research available on vaccine and drug design and development
