Molecular modeling techniques have been widely used in drug discovery fields for rational drug design and compound screening. Now these techniques  are used to model or mimic the behavior of molecules, and help us study formulation at the molecular level. Computational pharmaceutics enables us to understand the mechanism of drug delivery, and to develop new drug delivery systems.

The book discusses the modeling of different drug delivery systems, including cyclodextrins, solid dispersions, polymorphism prediction, dendrimer-based delivery systems, surfactant-based micelle, polymeric drug delivery systems, liposome, protein/peptide formulations, non-viral gene delivery systems, drug-protein binding, silica nanoparticles, carbon nanotube-based drug delivery systems, diamond nanoparticles and layered double hydroxides (LDHs) drug delivery systems.

Although there are a number of existing books about rational drug design with molecular modeling techniques, these techniques still look mysterious and daunting for pharmaceutical scientists. This book fills the gap between pharmaceutics and molecular modeling, and presents a systematic and overall introduction to computational pharmaceutics. It covers all introductory, advanced and specialist levels. It provides a totally different perspective to pharmaceutical scientists, and will greatly facilitate the development of pharmaceutics. It also helps computational chemists to look for the important questions in the drug delivery field.

This book is included in the Advances in Pharmaceutical Technology book series.



Dr Defang Ouyang is at the Institute of Medical Sciences, University of Macau in China as well as Aston University, UK. He has a multi-disciplinary and unique background and expertise in both drug delivery and molecular modeling. He completed his PhD at The University of Queensland, Australia in 2010. Since joining Aston, he has pioneered the application of molecular modeling techniques in the field of drug delivery - 'computational pharmaceutics', including cyclodextrin-drug complexes, solid dispersions, non-viral gene delivery systems and liposome formulations. So far, he has authored over 20 refereed publications, consisting of an invited book, a book chapter, invited reviews, journal articles, conference papers and patents.

Professor Sean C. Smith is at the School of Chemical Engineering, University of New South Wales, Australia. He was previously Director of the Center for Nanophase Materials Sciences at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, USA. He is firmly established internationally as a significant figure in the field of theoretical and computational chemistry. His contributions include theoretical studies of chemical reactions, material sciences, nano science and biological sciences. His publications include one book, three invited chapters, three invited reviews, and 203 refereed journal articles.
