Research Programs

Combining combinatorial chemistry and high-throughput screening (HTS) within our platform, we are interested in the discovery of new bio-active compounds. Those molecules discovered via HTS are then optimized using medicinal/combinatorial chemistry in order to produce new chemical tools for biological investigations, targets validation and/or new leads for future drugs developpement. New methodologies for access to targeted libraries are also developed.
 
 
We are involve in several collaborative projects with potential applications in drug discovery and biodefense.
 


Key words
High throughput screening, combinatorial chemistry, parallel synthesis, medical chemistry, application, anti-cancer and anti-malaria compounds
