Course Overview

People have witnessed pharmaceutical and biotechnological institutions spending a lot of money and time developing new drugs and pharmaceuticals with the primary purpose of saving the lives of patients suffering from specific diseases. Drug Discovery online certification is designed by Prof. Williams S. Ettouati and Prof. Joseph D. Ma and is made available through the University of Pennsylvania in the United States in partnership with Coursera as the first part of the Drug Discovery, Drug Development, and Drug Commercialization certification series. The Drug Discovery online course will teach individuals about the complete drug discovery and development process.

Drug Discovery online classes teach the drug discovery process up to the filing of an initial new drug application and the procedures that a pharmaceutical or biotechnology business takes to explore a new medicinal drug. This course also includes sections on the changing dynamics of the pharmaceutical and biotechnology markets, major components of the drug discovery process, numerous drug discovery tools and procedures, and regulatory obligations for drug discovery to register a particular drug.
