Computational and Experimental Studies in Alzheimer's Disease
This reference book compiles the recent advances in computational and experimental modelling to screen and manage Alzheimer’s disease. It covers basic etiopathology and various in vitro and in vivo strategies of disease intervention. The book discusses how computer-aided drug design approaches reduce costs and increase biological test efficiency. It reviews the screening for anti-Alzheimer drugs and biomarker analysis of disease inhibitors. The book also explores mechanistic aspects of neurodegeneration and the use of natural products as therapeutics for Alzheimer’s disease.

Om forfatteren
Kunal Bhattacharya is currently working as assistant professor in Pratiksha Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Assam, India. His area of specialization includes Computer aided drug design, Bioinformatics and Analytical Chemistry. He obtained his M.Pharm in Pharmaceutical Chemistry from Nitte University, Mangalore, India. He is currently pursuing his PhD in pharmaceutical sciences in neurodegenerative diseases from The Assam Royal Global University, Assam, India.
Atanu Bhattacharjee is currently working as a professor at School of Pharmacy, The Assam Royal Global University, Assam, India. He is considered as pioneer in the field of pharmacognosy and phytochemistry. Dr. Bhattacharjee achieved his Ph.D in Pharmaceutical Sciences in the areas of phytochemistry and neuro-pharmacology from Nitte University, Mangalore, India. He worked extensively on various in silico, in vitro and in vivo experiments to encounter neuro-degenerative disorders like Alzheimer’s disease with folklore medicine from the Indian diaspora and to determine safety profiles and standardize medicinal plants.
