Medicinal Chemistry

Medicinal chemistry is a challenging area as it combines multiple science fields and allows for cooperation in studying and creating new medicines with other scientists. Medicinal chemists extend their expertise in chemistry to the development of modern pharmaceuticals. They also develop the processes by which current pharmaceutics are made. Many chemists, including biologists, toxicologists, pharmacologists, analytical chemists, microbiologists and biopharmacists, work with a team of scientists across various disciplines.
