Description and Table of Contents

Description

This book arises from a workshop organized by the American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists entitled "Optimizing the Drug-Like Properties of Leads in Drug Discovery," which took place in Parsippany, NJ in September 2004. The workshop focused on the optimization of the drug-like properties of leads in drug discovery. The volume outlines strategies and methodologies designed to guide pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies through the drug discovery and development process.
