Nanotechnology and In Silico Tools: Natural Remedies and Drug Discovery provides the latest information and updates in the area of drug discovery. It covers aspects like nanomedicines, bioinformatics, molecular docking, molecular modeling, QSAR, virtual screening and computational chemistry as well as metabolomics research using various tools. The drug discovery process accelerates the design of new leads for various life-threatening diseases and natural medicines. Silico tools have been an integral part of the drug discovery process, playing a major role as a template for drug discovery and offering a holistic approach to better management of various diseases. Nanotechnology and In Silico Tools: Natural Remedies and Drug Discovery combines the principles of natural medicines with refined modern technology to help chemists in the development of a more ecofriendly, and effective discovery process.
