Medicinal Chemistry
Medicinal chemistry is a specialized field that involves the design, synthesis, and testing of new drugs, as well as the optimization of existing drugs to improve their effectiveness, safety, and bioavailability. Medicinal chemists work closely with other scientists and physicians to identify new compounds or modify existing compounds to treat specific diseases, such as cancer, diabetes, or cardiovascular diseases. They also study the physical and chemical properties of drugs to determine how they work, how they interact with the body, and how they can be further modified to achieve better outcomes.
