In Silico Drug Design: Repurposing Techniques and Methodologies explores the application of computational tools that can be utilized for this approach. The book covers theoretical background and methodologies of chem-bioinformatic techniques and network modeling and discusses the various applied strategies to systematically retrieve, integrate and analyze datasets from diverse sources. Other topics include in silico drug design methods, computational workflows for drug repurposing, and network-based in silico screening for drug efficacy. With contributions from experts in the field and the inclusion of practical case studies, this book gives scientists, researchers and R&D professionals in the pharmaceutical industry valuable insights into drug design.

Dr. Kunal Roy is Professor & Ex-Head in the Department of Pharmaceutical Technology, Jadavpur University, Kolkata, India (https://sites.google.com/site/kunalroyindia). He has been a recipient of Commonwealth Academic Staff Fellowship (University of Manchester, 2007) and Marie Curie International Incoming Fellowship (University of Manchester, 2013) and a former visiting scientist of Istituto di Ricerche Farmacologiche "Mario Negri" IRCCS, Milano.
