Drug Discovery is a process of identifying the new chemical compound that behaves as a drug like molecule.But this is a very slow process and may take around 7-8 years and large amount of money.

Steps in Drug Discovery

  1. ==Identification of Target molecule==
  2. ==Target validation==
  3. Assay Development
  4. Screening
  5. Lead optimization
  6. Drug Development
  7. Clinical Trials
