Developing a paradigm shift in new pharmaceutical and agrochemical design. This project will provide a paradigm shift in the design of new medicines and farming chemicals. The outcome of this research will be the efficient generation of diverse chemicals having real possibilities to improve global health and food security in the future.
Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Australian Sponge Metabolites. The development of concise and flexible syntheses of Australian marine natural products and analogues of ecological/therapeutic significance will emerge. Such activities will lead to the identification and evaluation of molecular entities of value in managing marine environments and help to enhance chemical synthesis capacity in Australia.
