Drug Discovery at the Institute is made up of many scientists working together as a team to design, test and develop molecules that will eventually become drugs for psychiatric diseases.

Drug discovery & development: translational medicine

From compound design and creation by medicinal chemistry to testing candidates for therapeutic effect in assay development and pharmacokinetics, drug discovery is a true meld of chemistry and biology. In this arena, we have both disciplines working together towards a common goal: translational medicine.
