First, Bioinformatics has successfully gather biological data in form of biomolecular sequences, in order to construct knowledge on drug and vaccine design. It is of considerable importance for drug designers to comprehend the utilization of bioinformatics tools for resolving their research questions. Second, Nanotechnology has made possible the design and delivery of the nano-based drug. Third, Pharmaceutical Chemistry made it possible to investigate the adsorption, distribution, metabolism, and toxicology of the drug candidates in a fine-grained resolution.
