Researches

Our research spans a wide range from basic organic synthesis, drug design and development, structure elucidation of newly synthesized compound and natural products.

The research focuses on the following strategic Research Themes:

  • Design and synthesis of new chemical entities.
  • Computer aided drug design studies.
  • Structure-Activity relationship studies.
  • Combinatorial chemistry.
  • Prod rugs developments.
  • Analytical methods for bioavailability and metabolic studies.

Research within these Themes is carried out in multidisciplinary groupings focused on the discovery of novel techniques and/or enhancement of the already existing ones. At the department of Medicinal Pharmacy, We have major national and international collaborative research projects and a significant output of research publications in high-ranking journals. Our academic collaborators include many Universities in USA, Canada, Japan, and a number of major European universities.
