France, India bet big on drug discovery
France and India are expanding their partnership in areas of research pertaining to chemical technology and medicinal chemistry, scientists from both countries announced here on Monday.
The collaboration between Indian Institute of Chemical Technology (IICT) and the Institute for Chemical Sciences in Rennes is about a decade old, but scientists are only now forging ahead in areas of research pertaining to medicine and drug development from natural products.
