Discovery and Development of Therapeutics from Natural Products against Neglected Tropical Diseases draws together research on medicinal agents from natural sources as starting points for the design of drugs against Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs). From the prediction of promising leads and identification of active agents, to the extraction of complex molecules, the book explores novel, economical and efficacious therapeutics for these diseases. It describes current research and the role of natural products, antimalarial compounds from marine natural products and sesquiterpene lactones, natural antileprotic agents, natural products with potential against Leishmaniasis, Trypanosomiasis and Dengue, and more.

In addition, Quinoline and Isoquinoline alkaloids for developing new antiprotozoal agents are discussed, alongside anti-trypanosomatid heterocyclic compounds as structures for development. Combining the expertise of specialists from around the world, this volume aims to support and encourage researchers in the investigation of natural sources as starting points for the development of novel, safe and effective agents for use against neglected tropical diseases.

Dr. Goutam Brahmachari is a full professor of organic chemistry at Visva-Bharati University, Santiniketan, India. His research focuses on developing practical synthetic methods for carbon–carbon and carbon–heteroatom bonds using C–H functionalization, cascade, and cross-coupling techniques, with applications in medicinal heterocyclic scaffolds. He has also studied the chemistry and biology of traditionally used Indian medicinal plants, identifying novel phytochemicals of interest. He is the founding Series Editor of Elsevier’s Natural Product Drug Discovery book series and an elected fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry. His awards include the Acharya P. C. Ray Memorial Lecture Award (2025) from the Indian Science News Association (ISNA), Kolkata, India; the Dr. Satyajit Chakraborti Memorial Award (2025) from IEM, Kolkata, India; the Chemical Research Society of India Bronze Medal (2021); the Dr. Basudev Banerjee Memorial Award (2021) from the Indian Chemical Society; the Indian National Science Academy Teachers Award (2019); the Dr. Kalam Best Teaching Faculty Award (2017); and the Academic Brilliance Award (2015).
