Predicting & Selecting Promising Drug Compounds
BIOL-40219
Learn the process and considerations in predicting and selecting the most promising alternative among various candidate drug compounds. In a very practical way, this course applies the principles taught in previous courses related to the likelihood of positive absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicology/patient safety outcomes of each compound. This course will include the use of in vitro studies utilized to predict in vivo outcomes in both test animals and humans
