This book raises the consciousness of halal aspects in medicinal chemistry. It is an academic treatise on the advanced technologies for vaccination, diagnostics, treatment, and drug discovery. The novel aspect is to view each topic from a halal perspective, targeting students, researchers, academics, and professionals from various industries. Experts in the field write each chapter. A practical approach identifies the issues, their importance, and how they align with the needs of Muslims and the broader global community.
