Interactions between molecules determine the properties of liquids, solids and solutions, and control structure and function in biology. Dr. Mark Taylor leads a world-renowned research program aimed at understanding and exploiting these interactions. His work has yielded insight into molecular interactions used in drug design, materials science and nanotechnology. It has revealed new ways to carry out selective chemical transformations of carbohydrates to generate medicinal agents or polymers. Dr. Taylor has advanced the Universitys strategic goals in molecular medicine, sustainable development and nanoscience, and has trained skilled, creative scientists for employment in Canadas pharmaceutical, chemical and high-tech sectors.

分子之间的相互作用决定了液体、固体和溶液的性质，并控制着生物学中的结构和功能。Mark Taylor博士领导着一个世界知名的研究项目，旨在了解和利用这些相互作用。他的工作使人们对药物设计、材料科学和纳米技术中使用的分子相互作用有了深入的了解。它揭示了对碳水化合物进行选择性化学转化以产生药物或聚合物的新方法。泰勒博士推进了大学在分子医学，可持续发展和纳米科学方面的战略目标，并为加拿大制药，化学和高科技部门的就业培训了熟练的，有创造力的科学家。
