Therapeutic target discovery and validation programme & the systems microscopy initiative

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The discovery and development of new drugs for human diseases is a major scientific priority worldwide, but the process is beset with challenges that make it difficult, expensive and protracted. Our work exploits advances in our understanding of the molecular circuits controlling normal and diseased cells to identify and validate new targets for the next generation of medicines. We are also developing new methods for microscopy to better understand the effect of new medicines on diseased cells.
