| Abstract |
ust as we being to understand the pathophysiology behind one disease, and its patterns, another disease emerges. This correlates with a continuously changing environment. Increases in population further promote new and resistant pathogens. This necessitates the need to continue to develop new and more advanced pharmaceuticals. The challenge has accelerated in recent years as pathogens have become resistant to current antibiotics and the quest to reduce the burden of cancer has accelerated. |
