The book outlines the core processes in drug discovery and development for CNS disorders, from evaluating drugs for desirable efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetic features in preclinical (using in vitro and in vivo models) and clinical experimentation to identifying future drug targets. Containing up-to-date experimental evidence and detailing the main impediments in the pipeline of CNS drug discovery and development, this is a key referenceNeuropharmacologyDrug developmentNeuropharmacology.Drug development.615/.78Kelly John1961-1705394MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910817296903321Principles of CNS drug development4092040UNINA
