Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The advancement of bioorganic and medicinal chemistry focuses on the development of drug discovery and biological chemistry, particularly the discovery of new therapeutic targets, methods, or agents for the treatment of various diseases. This covers research into novel chemical entities, understanding structure-activity relationships, and using computational techniques in drug design. This issue highlights the impact of bioorganic and medicinal chemistry in the context of new therapeutic strategies in different diseases.
