Medicinal Chemists: The Architects of Drug Discovery

Today’s medicinal chemists must think innovatively, be more versatile, and not only be knowledgeable in their own field of expertise but a range of other disciplines to help move programs forward in the drug discovery process.

These guys are heroes in my book. I have anxiety and other things from security work during repeated hostile encounters I was tasked with. And sometimes I sit here and look back in a time when this wasn't a thing. When people in the 20's drank Chloroform and liquid Heroine in an attempt to heal. In the 40's, the Benzodiazepines were one of the biggest game changers. It helped many people, but were highly addictive. Then later medicinal chemists discovered things like SSRI's, Anti-Psychotics, Z-Drugs which are generally less addictive, can be taken for longer terms, many even with less side effects, and work just as effectively sometimes. I take 100mg of Seroquel and it helps me a lot. I'm so grateful for these scientists and I hope they know people like me care so much for them. I'm always excited to see new discoveries from these guys. I can't wait to see what the future holds. The future of health and wellness, is in the hands of these amazing scientists.

2XP2 superimposed into 3LCT perhaps? I feel like I’d recognize those ligand anywhere.
