Re-assessing the risks of drug-induced arrhythmias during drug discovery

Drug Discovery World

The objective of this proposal would be to identify the pro-arrhythmic side effects of potential new drugs for their earlier withdrawal from the lengthy drug discovery and development process, enabling the productivity of cardiovascular drug discovery to improve. Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death globally.
