An Introduction to Medicinal Chemistry by Graham L Patrick
Assuming minimum background knowledge, the book develops an understanding of the molecular function of drugs and how they interact with the body, before exploring drug discovery and development. It goes on to examine topical issues in applications of medicinal chemistry to novel drug design, to give a contemporary view of the field.Graham Patrick is Lecturer in Organic Chemistry and Medicinal Chemistry at the University of the West of Scotland. Dr. Graham Patrick gained his BSc Honours at Glasgow University, winning the McKay-Smith Prize for Chemistry. He completed his PhD with Professor Kirby and Professor Robins studying the biosynthesis of gliotoxin and related fungal metabolites. Following this, he worked in the pharmaceutical industry
