Drug Discovery of Biologics explains in detail the discovery process of biologics. This class discusses the methodologies and criteria researchers use for early target screening, selection, validation, optimization, and determining when a drug target should be transitioned from discovery into preclinical development. 

 
Takeaways
  1. List the five steps of drug discovery and state the purpose of each
  2. Explain the methodologies of target identification and validation 
  3. Discuss the selection considerations for a large molecule to become a drug candidate
  4. Describe the assays and the results needed to select a drug candidate 
  5. Explain the importance of lead candidate optimization before preclinical development
