Chemistry for Health

This initiative will focus on health-related aspects of chemistry, particularly, though not exclusively, those affecting Scotland and the UK. Research into drugs to combat tuberculosis, MRSA and E. coli will be a primary concern as well as investigations into anti-cancer compounds. Allied to this is the development of new drug delivery systems utilising nanoporous materials.

The Chemistry for Health initiative will also seek to foster links with other institutions around Scotland, building upon this traditionally strong area of scientific research.
