Materia medica
In recent years, pharmaceutical drug discovery has transitioned back to the investigation of natural sources. This shift was induced by a sudden surge in drug-resistant infections in the 21-century, which has impacted the healthcare sector immensely.

To complement this, new models of therapeutic development have also been innovated to advance treatments options outside the pharmaceutical realm like phage therapy and probiotics.
