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
- Identification of Target molecule
- Target validation
- Assay Development
- Screening
- Lead optimization
- Drug Development
- Clinical Trials
