Pharmaceutical drug development is an important aspect of treating disease and prolonging life. Analytical chemistry is a core feature of pharmaceutical development. As a result, analytical chemists have important roles throughout the discovery, development, and commercialization of drug candidates. This presentation highlights a broad overview of drug development and discusses how analytical chemistry supports the many other scientific areas of drug development. Analytical chemistry ultimately helps answer important questions about the synthesis, reactivity, and stability of a drug molecule.
