The 6^th CTDDR will highlight cutting-edge advances in Drug Discovery and Development for infectious diseases (malaria, filaria, leishmania, HIV, tuberculosis), life style disorders (neurodegenerative, diabetes, obesity, CNS & CVS related disorders), cancer and reproductive/​bone disorders. The four days event will include keynote lectures, oral and poster presentations by a number of international/​national scientists and academicians featuring both basic sciences and translational biomedical research. Thus 6^th CTDDR 2016 will provide a single platform for in-depth assessment of the challenges associated with drug design and development in these areas.
