Drug Discovery, Design, and Delivery Research Group

Medicine For the Future

The Drug Discovery, Design and Delivery Research Group builds upon expertise within the School of Pharmacy and the College of Health and Science as a whole. Our work covers pre-clinical aspects of the drug discovery and development pipeline from the identification of novel drug targets, the design of new and improved drugs and antibiotics, to the development of improved methods of delivery. 

Our aims are to: 

- Identify new drug targets 

- Design and discover new drugs 

- Develop innovative approaches for drug delivery 

Our multidisciplinary group includes organic chemists, structural biologists, pharmacologists, and pharmaceutical scientists who work collaboratively to utilise state-of-the-art technologies and methodologies. We have strong links with the pharmaceutical industry and the Lincoln Institute for Agri-Food Technology, the Lincoln Institute of Rural Health, the National Centre for Food Manufacturing, and the Schools of Engineering, Chemistry, and Life Sciences.
