Medicinal Chemistry - Wroclaw University of TechnologyProgramm available in October 2010.
Medicinal chemistry is a scientific discipline at the intersection of chemistry and computational science involved with designing, synthesizing and developing new pharmaceutical drugs. In the beginning medicinal chemistry was involved in the screening of natural sources like plants or animals. Now the natural compounds serves as the leading compounds in the synthesis and development of new chemical entities suitable for therapeutic use. Medicinal chemistry includes the analysis of existing drugs their biological properties, and their structure-activity relationships. It is a highly interdisciplinary discipline widely using computational methods. Medicinal chemists cooperate with theoretical chemists, synthetic chemists, medical doctors, microbiologists, pharmacologists.
The graduation document certifies the degree in chemistry with the notification of a deepened specialization in Medicinal Chemistry. Study for applicants without engineering degree study lasts 2 years, otherwise 1.5 years only.
