Part 1: Introduction to Drug Discovery and Development Processes<\/b><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Half-Day Course

\n<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Dr. Michael W. Dong, MWD Consulting, Foster City, CA<\/p>\n

COURSE DESCRIPTION<\/b><\/span> <\/b>
<\/b>This introductory course provides a high-level overview of the entire drug development process for new therapeutics targeting human diseases, with a focus on the pivotal role of the analytical chemist in this complex, costly and multidisciplinary process. \u00a0It introduces the pharmaceutical (biopharm) industry (perspectives, challenges and trends), and discusses impacts from generic drugs.\u00a0 Course attendees will learn the current drug discovery approach, from basic research on disease pathophysiology, identification of drug targets, turning of hits to leads and candidate for non-clinical and clinical development.\u00a0 Regulatory filing procedures – Investigational New Drug (IND) prior to conducting human clinical trials and New Drug Application (NDA) allowing drug product commercialization will be discussed.\u00a0 The role of the analytical chemist, in supporting discovery, process scale-up, formulations, stability, DMPK, QC\/QA, and regulatory affairs functions, will be described.\u00a0 The focus of the course is on new drug discovery and development process of small molecule innovative drugs.\u00a0 This course can be combined with “Drug Development Part 2<\/a>” as a one-day course (E15-26);\u00a0a discount will be offered over separately registering for the two half-day courses.<\/p>\n

WHO SHOULD ATTEND<\/span>
\n<\/b>This course will benefit scientists currently working in the biopharmaceutical industry who want to improve their understanding of the drug discovery and development process (including pharma trends and perspectives, drug discovery, pre-clinical and clinical development, and regulations). This course is also useful for non-pharma scientists, including instrumentation specialists, who are seeking a better technical understanding of the challenges and opportunities in the industry. It is highly recommended that you have some fundamental understanding of biology, chemistry or biochemistry.<\/p>\n
