Aus erster Hand berichten die Autoren der Beiträge dieses Bandes, mit welchen Strategien in der kommerziellen Forschung nach Wirkstoffen gegen Infektionskrankheiten gesucht wird. Dabei konzentrieren sie sich in erster Linie auf Parasitosen, berücksichtigen aber auch bakterielle Infektionen. Hochinteressante Informationen, die man in dieser Form nirgends findet!
Prof. Dr. Paul M. Selzer studied Biology, Parasitology, and Biochemistry at the University of Tübingen, Germany, where he also received his PhD in Biochemistry on subjects related to the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei. As a post-doctoral fellow he spent three years in the parasitology and tropical disease laboratory of Prof. James H. McKerrow at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF). Within the Molecular Design Institute at UCSF Dr. Selzer was introduced to modern drug discovery approaches and technologies. He broadened his scientific and business knowledge as a researcher within diverse pharmaceutical companies including Boehringer Mannheim GmbH, Germany, SmithKline Beecham p.l.c., UK, Hoechst Roussel Vet GmbH, Germany, and finally Intervet Innovation GmbH, Germany, a part of Intervet/ Schering-Plough Animal Health. Dr. Selzer is also a teacher in Biochemistry, Bioinformatics, and Chemoinformatics at the University of Tübingen in the Department of Biochemistry, which awarded him the title of Professor for his achievements in teaching and research. In 2008, he was also awarded an Honorary Professorship in the Department of Infection and Immunity at the University of Glasgow.

"The book does not only cover the experience of experts horn the pharmaceutical industry, but also academic experts are on the stage We can only congratulate Paul M Selzer this successful effort." ( Tierarztliche Wochenschrift , September 2010)
"This book would give a good grounding in drug development for any one new to this field and would give specific information for researchers involved in particular areas covered by one of the sections." (Dr Katharine Carter, University of Strathclyde, ChemMedChem
