- Abstract
This document is an editorial published in Frontiers in Pharmacology titled "Pharmacoinformatics: new developments and challenges in drug design." It discusses the field of pharmacoinformatics, which combines computational sciences and pharmacology to streamline drug discovery and development. The editorial highlights 10 original research articles that demonstrate the transformative potential of computational approaches in pharmacology. These articles cover a range of therapeutic areas and offer insights into drug design, efficacy, and mechanisms of action. The research topics include deep learning-based multi-drug synergy prediction models, network pharmacology-based approaches, bioinformatics in phytomedicine research, computational analysis of viral proteases, design of chemical libraries, and synthesis and evaluation of novel compounds. The editorial concludes by emphasizing the interdisciplinary nature of pharmacoinformatics and its potential to accelerate drug discovery and enhance our understanding of complex biological systems. The authors hope that this research inspires further collaboration and the development of more effective and personalized therapeutic strategies.
