We are an interdisciplinary group of scientists whose mission is to accelerate the process of drug discovery and its efficient translation into cures.
The expertise of members of our team ranges from structural biology (especially emerging methods such as cryo-electron microscopy), to protein biochemistry, electrophysiology, and computer-aided drug design and engineering.
We aspire to be an internationally leading hub for drug discovery related to cancer, neuroscience and infectious diseases by leveraging our unique combination of interdisciplinary strengths.
If you would like to join our team, we would love to hear from you.
