Alison Edwards
Dr Alison Edwards is the Senior Lecturer in Pharmaceutical Chemistry at the Universities of Greenwich and Kent at Medway.
André Cobb
André is the Director of FoldNetUK and lead investigator of a research group focused on the synthesis and application of new peptidic structures, particularly through the development of new methodologies towards unnatural amino acids.
Andy Wilson
Andy Wilson is a Professor in the School of Chemistry at the University of Birmingham. The Wilson group are interested in the application of synthetic molecules to problems in Chemical Biology and Materials Science. We pursue both curiosity driven fundamental research and mission inspired research addressing societal challenges.
Anna Barnard
Anna is an Associate Professor (Senior Lecturer) in the Department of Chemistry at Imperial. Her research focuses on the development of peptides and small molecules to understand and perturb protein-protein interactions.
Ian Hamley
Professor Ian Hamley is Diamond Professor of Physical Chemistry in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Reading.
James Hindley
Research in the Hindley group takes a multidisciplinary approach to construct bioinspired nano and microsystems known as synthetic cells. By utilising molecular self-assembly, and interfacing compartments with other (bio)molecules, synthetic cells can be constructed with the ability to mimic the architectures, functions and behaviours of biology.
Jonathan Clayden
Jonathan leads a synthetic chemistry group with expertise in design/applications of amide and urea-based with controlled but dynamic conformational properties.
Nicholas Mitchell
Nick's group focuses on the development of new bioconjugation methodologies. Current projects include the exploration of photocatalytic, biocatalytic, and electrochemical methods for the site-selective modification of peptides and proteins.
Peter Knipe
Peter is a synthetic organic chemist with a group focused on developing synthetic methodologies, and developing new foldamer motifs. The Knipe Group are particularly interested in precise control of conformation by non-covalent interactions, stereoelectronic effects and monomer structure.
Steven Cobb
Steven is the Director of the Biophysical Sciences institute and his research group uses a range of methods and techniques in synthetic organic, peptoid and peptide chemistry to tackle interesting and challenging biological problems.
