Objective:
To identify avenues for advancing training and research in Medicinal
Chemistry in developing countries.
Progress:
A first report entitled 'Research and Training in Medicial Chemistry
in South and Central America and Sub-Saharan Africa' has been prepared
and published in Chem.
Int.
21(3), 65-69 (1999). [also published in Cam. J. Biol. Bioch.
Sc. (1996) VI(1), 3-10.]
This project continues with investigation in India and
China.

of medicinal chemistry in different geographic areas of the world and
a proposal to achieve more effective international cooperation have
been reviewed in an article entitled 'Medicinal
Chemistry in the Development of Societies, Biodiversity, and Natural
Products', published in Chem. Int. 23(2), 39-42 (2001).
