The newer research areas in pharmaceutical sciences, in particular molecular modeling and simulations prompted more efficient drug discovery process. Informatics integrated with pharmaceutical sciences (cheminformatics and bioinformatics) became an essential component of drug research. Drug informatics such as genomics and proteomics assists in the Rational Drug Design (RDD). This emerging discipline is known as “Computer-Aided Drug Design (CADD)”, which has profound application in rational drug design (RDD). Pharmacy Council of India (PCI), New Delhi also introduced these concepts into the curriculum of pharmacy graduate courses.
