Interested in exploring the untapped potential of stem cells in tissue regeneration and healing using cutting-edge interdisciplinary research techniques?. Read more
Our laboratory is interested in the application of enabling technologies, such as continuous flow[1] and photochemistry,[2] for the synthesis of useful functional molecules such as drugs, agrochemicals and materials. Read more
We will establish methods for the synthesis of novel, medicinally important bridged bicyclic hydrocarbon (BBH) scaffolds using late-stage oxygenation enabled by unspecific peroxygenase (UPO) enzymes. Read more
There is significant interest in sp3-rich heterocyclic scaffolds for medicinal chemistry and there is thus a need for methods to construct sp3-sp2 bonds on such scaffolds in a simple, controllable, programmable and sustainable way. Read more
There is much interest in 3D heterocyclic scaffolds for medicinal chemistry. Within fragment-based drug discovery, we are developing a synthetic platform to enable the elaboration of 2D fragments into 3D lead compounds, addressing limitations highlighted by industry. Read more
Fungal infections are a major threat to public health as they are becoming increasingly resistant to treatment. Only four classes of antifungals are available, with few candidates in the clinical pipeline. Read more
Project Overview. This project offers an exciting opportunity to use hydrogels and 3D printing to engineer a segment of the spinal cord, which could be further developed into a transplant for patients with spinal cord injury (SCI). Read more
Background. Our group explores geometrically interesting molecules for fundamental and functional chemistry. One area of focus is the development of scaffolds from which substituents can be reliably extended with well-defined bond angles and lengths. Read more
Can learning be enriched by embracing failure? Many educational systems shy away from failure-driven learning, emphasizing instruction-first methods. Read more
Background. Neurological diseases are currently the 2nd leading cause of death, and the leading cause of disability adjusted life years (DALY) worldwide1. Read more
Soft tissue reconstruction is emerging as an important strategy to repair and replace diseased or damaged tissue that has been compromised due to tumour removal, injury, trauma, ageing, etc. Read more
At the Programmable Biomaterials Lab (PBL), our goal is to solve some of the major challenges facing large-scale and high-throughput bioproduction via innovative 3D light-assisted programming of matter. Read more
This PhD project will develop a new class of MRI contrast agents. MRI is an essential tool for medical diagnosis. Contrast agents play a crucial role in improving the images obtained, and hence patient outcomes. Read more
Background. For neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s disease, where a specific cell type is lost, it is possible to consider replacing these cells to restore the lost function. Read more
