Content | The goal of the course is to give the students a broad overview of drug discovery and development (R&D) for parasitic diseases. Topics like drug discovery, drug development, issues of pharmacokinetics and toxicity, initiatives to support the R&D process, will be treated in a more general way. Examples of drug discovery projects will be discussed and drug development projects will be presented. The role of industry in R&D for parasitic diseases of man and its animals will also be covered. Invited speakers from companies and representatives of new initiatives will participate and allow an insight into current activities in R&D in the public and private sector. |
