About the Journal

Aim and Scope

Drug discovery and design science has evolved as interdisciplinary field, enriched by the collaborative efforts of chemoinformaticians, molecular biologists and pharmacologists. 

International Journal of Drug Design and Discovery a peer-reviewed scientific journal offers a forum for the publication of original research and critical reviews of the latest milestones in the pharmaceutical sciences and other allied health care sciences. The journal publishes research findings related discovery, design, synthesis and evaluation of bioactive agents.

The journal accepts English manuscripts and publishes the accepted manuscripts quarterly both online and print version. The Journal publishes original research papers, research notes, reviews, perspectives, case study and editorial commentary. The journal stimulates awareness in the future direction of drug research and valuable reference for the advancement of pharmaceutical science.

The contributions are encouraged on the following areas

  • Drug design and synthesis of novel lead compounds
  • Computational approaches
  • Overviews of emerging targets and therapeutics
  • Targeted drug delivery
  • Pharmacogenomics and toxicology
  • Green chemistry and protein-peptide chemistry
  • Improved efficacy, toxicology or pharmacokinetic properties of known biologically active scaffolds
  • Separation and biophysical technologies for drug design
  • Natural product isolation and characterization for drug design

By remaining highly responsive to emerging themes, and providing in-depth analysis of agents of medicinal interest and therapeutic approaches
