Computer-Aided Drug Design (CADD): From Ligand-Based Methods to Structure-Based Approaches outlines the basic theoretical principles, methodologies and applications of different fundamental and advanced CADD approaches and techniques. Including information on current protocols as well as recent developments in the computational methods, tools and techniques used for rational drug design, the book explains the fundamental aspects of CADD, combining this with a practical understanding of the various in silico approaches used in modern drug discovery processes to assess the field in a comprehensive and systematic manner.

Providing up-to-date, information and guidance for scientists, researchers, students and teachers, the book helps readers address specific academic and research related problems using illustrative explanations, examples and case studies, which are systematically reviewed.
