Track 1: Drug Targeting & Design
The main objective in drug design is to foresee whether a given particle will bind to a target and if so how unequivocally. Molecular mechanics or molecular dynamics are regularly used to predict the conformation of the little particle and to model conformational changes in the biological targets that may happen when the little molecules ties to it. The remedial reaction of a drug relies on the cooperation of drug molecules with cell on cell membrane related biological events at receptor sites in concentration dependent manner.
Molecular mechanics methods may also be used to provide semi-quantitative prediction of the binding affinity. Also, knowledge-l scoring function may be used to provide binding affinity estimates. These methods use linear progression, device knowledge, neural networks or other statistical techniques to derive predictive binding affinity equations by fitting experimental affinities to computationally derived interaction energies between the small molecule and the target.

Track 3: Nano medicine & Nanotechnology
Nano medicine is the medical application of nanotechnology. Nano medicine shows from the useful applications of nanomaterials and biological devices, to Nano electronic biosensors, and even possible future applications of molecular nanotechnology such as biological machines. Current problems for Nano medicine involve understanding the issues related to toxicity and environmental impact of nanoscale materials. The industrialization of nanoscale titanium dioxide for a broad range of applications (most of which we are quite familiar with) is only one such example showing how nanomaterials have become a central component in the manufacturing process during the past decade.
A second area exhibiting a strong development is “nanodrugs” where nanoparticles are designed for targeted drug delivery. The use of such importers improves the drug bio distribution, targeting active molecules to diseased tissues while protecting healthy tissue. A third area of application is regenerative medicine where nanotechnology allows developing biocompatible materials which support growth of cells used in cell therapy.

Track 4: Medicinal Chemistry and Drug Discovery
Medicinal chemistry is a discipline at the overtone of chemistry, particularly synthetic organic chemistry, and pharmacology and various other biological specialties, where they are involved with design, chemical synthesis and development for market of pharmaceutical agents. Earlier, medicinal chemists often optimized and developed compounds without much knowledge of the drug target or pathway in mind. New skills have had an enormous impact on drug discovery since the mid-20th century. Once hits are identified from high throughput screening (or other sources) the chemists may become involved in hit to lead (h2l) studies when hits from screens are effectively triaged and closely scrutinized for ability to serve as full blown lead compounds. Medicinal chemistry has, therefore, grown to encompass a greater range of scientific disciplines in the drug discovery process in order to minimize the cost, time and risk of development. The arrival of newer high powered computational capabilities was one catalyst for this approach. to succeed in the discovery process medicinal chemists have to perform these initial important tasks: identification of lead molecules which have the desired biological activity using new technologies such as hits and combinatorial chemistry, the lead modification or optimization which could be done by employing structure-activity analysis and scale-up of the optimized lead for further drug development process and efficacy testing.

Track 12: Bio pharmaceutics and Biologic Drugs
Biopharmaceutics is defined as the study of factors influencing the rate and amount of drug that reaches the systemic circulation and the use of this information to optimize the therapeutic efficacy of the drug products. The process of movement of drug from its site of administration to the systemic circulation is called as absorption. The concentration of drug in plasma and hence the onset of action, and the intensity and duration of response depend upon the bioavailability of drug from its dosage form. Bioavailability is defined as the rate and extent (amount) of drug absorption. Any alteration in the drug’s bioavailability is reflected in its pharmacological effects.
Biologic Drugs are genetically occurred from a living organism, such as a virus, protein, to maintain the body’s natural response to infections and diseases. Biologics target proteins, and cells responsible for the appearance and injury of rheumatoid arthritis and other types of inflammatory arthritis.

Furthermore, this technique provides a better understanding of the release behaviors of drugs from drug delivery systems based on diffusion, dissolution, and osmosis mechanisms. Although early studies have been mainly qualitative in nature, these techniques can offer considerable information on release processes at the molecular level. Moreover, NMR spectroscopy has been used to detect structural changes that occur in drug delivery systems during the dissolution process.

Track 19: Smart Drug Delivery Systems
An ideal drug delivery system needs to execute multiple tasks, which involves the highest degree of smartness. While delivering the drug at the desired location requires surface modification with a suitable targeting moiety that will enable the carrier to bind to cells of interest, delivery of necessary amount of drug necessitates incorporation of a trigger that will regulator the amount of drug released at a given instant. The trigger could either be a stimulus provided externally (extrinsic triggers) or could be due to the internal environment of the system in which the drug delivery system is introduced (internal triggers). In theoretical field, variety of smart DDSs have been plentifully demonstrated for various intriguing systems, such as stimuli-responsive polymeric nanoparticles, liposomes, metals/metal oxides, and exosomes.
