Computational chemistry has emerged as a transformative tool in the field of drug discovery and design. By harnessing the power of computational algorithms, molecular modeling and simulations, researchers can expedite the process of identifying and optimizing potential drug candidates. This approach offers numerous advantages, including time and cost savings, as well as the ability to explore a vast chemical space. Here, we explore some key applications of computational chemistry in drug discovery and design. In the quest for effective and safe drugs, the field of drug discovery and design has witnessed a remarkable transformation in recent years, thanks to the power of computational chemistry. Computational chemistry leverages advanced algorithms, high-performance computing and extensive databases to expedite the process of drug development. This revolutionary approach has paved the way for more efficient and cost-effective drug discovery, leading to the development of groundbreaking therapies that were once deemed impossible.
