The research activity of the group is dedicated to the identification and characterization of new biologically active compounds. The inter-disciplinary approach is the driving force of the research activity which is focused on the design, synthesis and analysis of new focused compound libraries and on the preparation and characterization of chiral compounds. The group has prepared more than 1000 molecules (both natural and synthetic compounds) with drug-like properties. The biological investigations are carried out with several international collaborations.
Our laboratory is located at the Department of Drug Science of the University of Pavia
