Enzyme-responsive peptide hydrogel as in situ forming long-acting drug delivery implants
One of the key issues in the treatment and prevention of disease is that patients struggle to adhere to the complex dosage regimens of therapies, which often require multiple dosing at very specific times each day. Read more
Transformative Peptide Chemistry for RNA Nanotechnology
Transformative Peptide Chemistry for RNA Nanotechnology is an inaugural cohort-based Thematic Doctoral Pathway programme from Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU). Read more
Design, synthesis and evaluation of protease-activated anti-cancer prodrugs
Research Group:
Institute of Cancer Therapeutics
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of endoproteases that are overexpressed in tumours and play crucial roles in many tumourigenic processes, not least tumour invasion and angiogenesis. Read more
GW4 BioMed2 MRC DTP PhD project: Theranostics and Multimodal Imaging with Near-Infrared Emitting Peptide Nucleic Acids
This project is one of a number that are in competition for funding from the GW4 BioMed2 MRC Doctoral Training Partnership which is offering up to 20 studentships for entry in September 2024. Read more
Synthesis of peptide biomaterials for tissue engineering
Nanocomposite biomaterials are an emerging area of research as we seek to optimise the properties of biomaterials to enhance their suitability for tissue engineering purposes. Read more
Synthesis of Peptidomimetics Based on Functionalizable Freidinger Lactams
Despite mediating a plethora of vital biological processes in living organisms, peptides remain a challenging class of drug targets due to their poor cell penetration, proteolytic instability and unfavourable pharmacokinetics. Read more
Investigating the interactions of incretin hormone mimetics with hypothalamo-neurohypophysial system arginine vasopressin and oxytocin release
Our research focus over decades has been the osmoregulatory function of a special collection of neurones in a part of the brain called the hypothalamus. Read more
Structure based design of novel warheads for use in peptide-drug conjugates

Chimeric Molecules for Targeted Protein Post-Translational Modifications
Our group is interested in diverse applications of peptide and protein chemistry and chemical probes, from natural product discovery and therapeutic innovation to chemical proteomics and cell signalling. Read more
Fragment-Based Lead Generation of Small Molecule Inhibitors of the Nsp3 Macrodomain in SARS-CoV-2
Background. Coronaviruses (CoVs) are important human pathogens and SARS-CoV-2 is responsible for the current COVID-19 pandemic. Read more
Towards New Antivirals for the Treatment of COVID-19: Fragment-Based Lead Generation of Small Molecule Inhibitors of the Nsp3 Macrodomain in SARS-CoV-2
Background. Coronaviruses (CoVs) are important human pathogens and SARS-CoV-2 is responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic. Notwithstanding progress in available vaccines for COVID-19, there remains a need to develop small molecule drug candidates for treating COVID-19. Read more
