Progress in medicinal chemistry. Volume 46 /
Appropriate selection of biochemical targets is one of the most important drivers of cost effectiveness in the discovery of new medicines. Despite the many advances in genetics, genomics and systems biology, 'validation' of a target is not achieved until therapeutic efficacy is demonstrate...
