Target Discovery and Validation Reviews and Protocols: Emerging Molecular Targets and Treatment Options, Volume 2

These volumes review the most current methods for drug target discovery and validation. They explore how recent improvement in understanding the molecular mechanisms of human pathology is impacting drug target discovery in the laboratory and in real therapeutics, specifically for cancers and autoimmune disorders. This book provides a thorough review of the most cutting-edge methods available for each step in drug target identification, validation, and clinical application.

From the reviews:

"...provide a thorough review of the most cutting-edge methods available for each step in drug target identification, validation, and clinical applications." -Anticancer Research

"Review current methods for drug target discovery and validation. ... the chapters are generally well written and clear, and provide extensive references to the current literature. Overall ... provide useful overviews that would provide entry into this field. Novice and more experienced researchers ... would find useful information ... ." (Jonathan B.
