[ENG] In this contribution, after a brief historical account on the role of chemists on drug discovery, a deeper insight modern strategies that scientists employ for the design and production of new drugs that could help to the diseases that concern our society is discussed. Thereafter, an overview on the potential evolution directions discovery linked to the valuable implications of chemists to assist in this evolution is given. Finally, a brief of the work that research groups from our Institute carry out in the Biomedicine area is also outlined.
[CAT] En aquest article es fa un breu relat històric del paper del químic en el descobriment de fàrmacs, per endinsar-se després en les estratègies modernes que fan servir els científics d’avui per dissenyar i produir nous medicaments que ajudin a combatre les malalties que més preocupen la societat. Finalment, es dóna una panoràmica de la possible evolució del món del descobriment de fàrmacs, de la implicació del químic en aquest món i de la contribució de grups d’investigació del nostre Institut en aquest camp.
