High
throughput screening and accelerated pharmaco-toxicological profiling
of bioactives.
This should encompass:
the
development of medium throughput screening to high throughput screening
of bioactive molecules by the acquistion of relevent biotechnology,
followed by its enhancement leading to the development of new assays.
accelereted
approach to pharmaco-toxicological profiling of biomolecules towards
the ultimate application of gene chip technology. Research should
be focused on key pharmacological systems of interest/value to the
nation, such as the cardiovascular-renal system, central nervous system
and immunological system (including endocrine system).
