Overview
Our aim is to offer knowledge and expertise for a career in the pharmaceutical industry, academia or in primary/secondary care.
Distinctive features
The work involves close collaboration with virologists and biochemists throughout Europe, and USA.
The School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences has excellent facilities for the group. It has purchased a Bruker 500MHz NMR spectrometer, a Fisons Platform II Mass Spectrometer (set up for electrospray and APCI) and several Silicon Graphics workstations and extensive software including Sybyl, Macromodel, DOCK, GRID and Oxford Molecular Software. The synthetic chemistry laboratories have recently been refurbished and each researcher has their own fume hood.
There are excellent library facilities and computer links from all the laboratories allowing access to a wide range of databases.
