We are a research group working at the interface of chemistry and biology to design probes and inhibitors to investigate the intricate workings of human proteins and cells, with a particular interest in epigenetics and dementia.
We form part of Alzheimer’s Research UK Oxford Drug Discovery Institute (ARUK-ODDI) and the Centre for Medicines Discovery (CMD) in the University of Oxford’s Nuffield Department of Medicine.
