Areas of Expertise

The discovery of new drugs involves the evaluation and design of thousands of compounds to select a candidate with the desired levels of specificity, efficacy and safety. An understanding of the biochemical events associated with disease is necessary, along with the ability to identify and assess the novel chemical entities that influence these biochemical events.

Our dedicated scientists work in multidisciplinary research teams to discover new drugs. It is because of their highly integrated and coordinated efforts that we are able to meet the overall goals of therapeutic advancement.
