Bioinformatics: A New Pathway for Herbal Drug Design
As data science and computational biology advance at unprecedented speed, bioinformatics has emerged as a vital tool in the design and development of herbal medicines. By enabling the intelligent analysis of biological and chemical data, bioinformatics allows researchers to identify active plant-based compounds and simulate their pharmacological effects with remarkable precision.
Today, researchers and pharmaceutical companies widely use platforms like PubChem, software such as AutoDock, and molecular docking simulations to explore how herbal compounds interact with biological receptors. These methods not only reduce the time and cost of R&D but also enhance the accuracy of drug candidate selection.
At Padideh Giah Innovation Center, we are committed to supporting bioinformatics-based research in the herbal drug sector. We invite collaborations with researchers, startups, and technology teams exploring data-driven drug development in phytomedicine.
