关于我们
Medicinal Chemistry is a dynamic, multifaceted scientific discipline that is dedicated to the improvement of human health through research leading to new concepts for the design and development of safe and effective therapeutic, diagnostic, and environmental agents. Research in Medicinal Chemistry involves the application of both chemical and biological principles to investigations between molecular structure and biological activity. Examples include the design and synthesis of new medicinal agents, the development of new concepts for the design of selectively acting ligands, improvement of existing drugs by molecular modification, structure elucidation of biologically active natural products, physicochemical and theoretical studies on drugs and macromolecules, investigations of the effects of molecular structure on the distribution, pharmacokinetics, metabolism and toxicity of biologically active substances, and the application of the basic principles of chemistry and molecular biology to the development and production of medicinals from natural sources.

The department held a small gathering yesterday to celebrate the retirement of Mary Lunzer, who has worked at the University of Minnesota for 43 years! Mary had the opportunity to work with both the legendary Prof. Philip Portoghese as well as the esteemed Prof. Carrie Haskell-Luevano during her time in the department - and they both had wonderful things to say about her smarts, work ethic, personality, and positive spirit! Mary, you will be missed! We wish you the best of luck in retirement.
