Answers For consideration: 1 Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of real versus virtual models as tools to help understand the three-dimensional structure of organic molecules. The pharmaceutical industry often uses a process called 'computer-aided design' as part of the research and development of new drugs. Consider how the use of computers may be useful in this way. What aspects of drug design may not be usefully investigated using computers?
