Track 1: Drug Discovery & Screening
Medication design is one of the most crucial parts of the drug development process. The binding energy of the lead molecule to the target, as well as its thermodynamic properties, are predicted through drug screening. Molecular mechanics and molecular dynamics are the most commonly used approaches for forecasting model conformation changes. This lecture will cover the practical challenges of drug targeting and design, as well as solutions for overcoming them.

Track 2: Pharmacokinetics & Pharmacodynamics
Pharmacokinetic effect is determined by the amount of medication present at the target area. Recent advances in analytical and quantitative techniques have often resulted in non-invasive studies of drug pharmacokinetics at the site of action in order to gain a better understanding of pharmacokinetic properties. Pharmacodynamics is affected by receptor binding and sensitivity, post receptor effects, chemical interactions, physiologic changes caused by genetic mutations, diseases, ageing, or the impact of other drugs. Pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics describe the effects of drugs on the host body.

Track 3: Pharmacogenomics
The drug's effect and response vary from person to person due to the fact that everyone's DNA is unique. Pharmacogenomics is a branch of genetics that studies a person's genetic reaction to a drug and gene-drug interactions in the body. Pharmacogenomics is the cornerstone of personalized medicine, a relatively new concept that is expected to gain traction in the next years.

Track 4: Pharmacology & Toxicology
Clinical pharmacology, cardiovascular pharmacology, behavioral pharmacology, neuropsychopharmacology, pharmacogenetics, and Pharmacoeconomics are only a few of the pharmacology's many sub-specialties. Toxicology studies the negative consequences of pharmaceuticals and chemical substances, as well as treatment options, whereas pharmacology studies the positive effects of drugs.

Track 5: Pre-formulation & Formulation Aspects
The physiochemical and mechanical properties of the medication are crucial in the production of the drug during pre-formulation investigations. It's vital to analyze how a protein behaves in solution under diverse physiological conditions when dealing with protein pre-formulation. When developing a drug, physio-chemical factors such as particle size, polymorphism, pH, and solubility should be taken into account because they affect bioavailability and activity. According to the formulation, the dosage should have a uniform appearance, a pleasing flavor, and good capsule dissolving capabilities.

A unique innovative drug delivery system's key benefit is that it distributes medicine to the target place in a controlled manner, resulting in enhanced efficacy and fewer side effects. It employs two methods: spatial drug delivery, which involves sending a medicine to a specific organ or tissue, and temporal drug delivery, which involves giving a treatment at a specific time. The pace of drug delivery to the target tissue is adjusted using a variety of approaches.
