خلاصه	Molecular docking predicts the preferred binding orientation and affinity of a ligand (small molecule) within a protein binding pocket. Pioneered by Kuntz and colleagues in 1982, this computational method searches conformational space to find energetically favorable ligand-protein complexes, enabling rapid screening of chemical libraries for drug discovery.	Pharmacophore modeling identifies the spatial arrangement of molecular features (hydrogen bond donors, acceptors, aromatic rings) that are essential for biological activity. Introduced by Gund in 1977, this ligand-based method creates a three-dimensional pattern that can screen chemical libraries and design new active compounds without requiring receptor structure.	Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR) modeling predicts biological activity from molecular structure using statistical or machine learning models. Pioneered by Hansch in 1964, QSAR correlates numerical molecular descriptors with measured bioactivity, enabling prediction of activity for untested compounds and rational lead optimization.
