Funded Activity Summary

Understanding and predicting small molecule binding to G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). The discovery of new treatments for serious diseases is a time consuming and expensive process. Our work involves developing and testing new computational modelling approaches with experimental validation for the understanding and prediction of how current and new drugs interact with their targets, and these methods can be extended for improved understanding of how other proteins work. Our approaches have the potential to increase the speed, reduce the cost and lead to the discovery of new treatments for serious crippling diseases such as anxiety, depression, diabetes, and obesity.
