Workshop on Applied Informatics in Pharmacology and Pharmacogenomics (AIPP-2017)
November 13-16, 2017, Kansas City, MO, USA
Call for Papers:
The application of knowledge from chemistry, along with trial-and-error–based pharmacology, has traditionally been the drug development technique of choice. This approach makes the process very cumbersome. However, the pharmaceutical industry has recently been investing in the development and use of an unprecedented wealth of publically available ‘omics’ data, with a quest to develop drugs that are more effective, safe, curative and that can accelerate the process of screening and drug development. Applied informatics and bioinformatics are imperative in the development of high-throughput screening techniques, rational drug design and drug target identification. Moreover, the analysis of genomic data for various mutations and SNPs can be used in predicting the therapy response in a patient and can be equally useful in making treatment decisions at the clinic.
