Track-1: Biomedicine

Biomedicine (i.e. medical biology) is a branch of medical science that applies organic and physical principles to clinical practice. The branch especially applies to biology and physiology. Biomedicine also can relate to many other categories in health and biological related fields. The therapy used in pharmaceutical drugs is known as pharmacotherapy. It is distinguished from other therapy like surgical, radiation and physical therapy. Biomedicine involves the study of (pathos-) physiological processes with methods from biology and physiology. Approaches range from understanding molecular interactions to the study of the consequences at the in vivo level. These processes are studied with the particular point of view of devising new strategies for diagnosis and therapy. The application of development and pathological processes in humans, animals and cellular models is known as system medicine. Whereas systems biology aims at modelling exhaustive networks of interactions (with the long-term goal of, for example, creating a comprehensive typical of the cell), mainly at intra-cellular level, it also emphasizes the models of tissue, cell, organ, ecosystem by integration of factors into models that reveal the biological processes.

Track-18: Industrial Pharmacy

Involvement of medication  that discovers, develops, produces, and markets drugs or pharmaceutical drugs  is the branch related to Pharmaceutical industry. Pharmaceutical companies may deal in generic or brand medications and medical devices. They are subject to a variety of laws and regulations that govern the patenting, testing, safety, efficacy and drugs. Now a day the root of pharmaceutical industry emphasizes on two sources. The first of these were local apothecaries that expanded from their traditional role distributing botanical drugs such as morphine and quinine to wholesale manufacture in the mid 1800s.The drugs which are discovered from the plant depends particularly  with the isolation of morphine, analgesic and sleep-inducing agent from opium, The name Morpheus is given by the German assistant apothecary  Friedrich Sertürner, who named the compound after the Greek god of dreams, Morpheus. Multinational corporations including MerckHoffman-La Roche, Burroughs-Welcome (now part of Glaxo Smith Kline), Abbott LaboratoriesEli Lilly and Upjohn (now part of Pfizer) began as local apothecary shops in the mid-1800s. By the late 1880s, German dye manufacturers had perfected the purification of individual organic compounds from coal tar and other mineral sources and had also established rudimentary methods in organic chemical synthesis. The development of synthetic chemical methods allowed scientists to systematically vary the structure of chemical substances, and growth in the emerging science of pharmacology expanded their ability to evaluate the biological effects of these structural changes.
