Computational Drug Discovery

This book has originated from Practical class on Genomics & Proteomics that are offered to students of Computational Biology, Bangalore University of Bangalore. The idea to write a book on Computational Biology was born during the preparations of these practical where I realized that it is extremely difficult to achieve an overview of the area of Drug Discovery and to follow the progress of this field. This is the first book in 2015 and was written in English .Computational Biology is a major topic in modern medical, Life science and pharmacological research and is of central importance in the computational biology science. Accordingly, The enormous increase in data on Drug Designing has led me to leave out the practical on Computational Biology and. This topic has since evolved into a huge research area of its own that could not be considered adequately within this book. My knowledge of Drug Designing practical has exploded in the past 5 years, Bioinformatics could be treated here with the same thoroughness. It is the aim of the present book to describe the Bioinformatics practical approach for life science students.
