Medicinal Chemistry: The Molecular Basis of Drug Discovery

This Medicinal Chemistry: The Molecular Basis of Drug Discovery training is a seven weeks online course. This course is produced by a partnership between DavidsonX and the Novartis Institutes of BioMedical Research and delivered through the EDX platform. This course was explained by Erland Stevens who is a professor at Davidson College.

This medicinal chemistry course investigates how chemists modify the structure of a molecule to create a safe and effective drug. This course begins with a brief history of drug discovery and progresses to an overview of the modern drug approval process.

Then, users will learn about receptors and enzymes, the molecules in the body that are most commonly targeted by drugs. Users can also discuss pharmacokinetics (drug adsorption, elimination, and half-life) and metabolism in this forum. This course concludes with units on the identification of potential drug molecules and their subsequent optimization into safe and effective drugs.
