Dr Angela Finch
    
School of Medical Sciences - Department of Pharmacology
Statement of Interests:
Research interests are G-Protein Coupled Receptor (GPCR), activation and regulation by drugs. The mechanisms of GPCR activation are being explored via: (i) examination of conserved residues within rhodopsin-like GPCRs, (ii) understanding the complexity of alpha1-adrenergic receptor (AR) signalling (iii) a drug discovery program, in collaboration with other members of the Department of Pharmacology, studying novel chemical frameworks as the basis of new alpha1-AR selective compounds for treatment of diseases such as hypertension and prostate cancer.

Associate Professor Renate Griffith
    
School of Medical Sciences - Department of Pharmacology
Statement of Interests:
In the field of medicinal chemistry, the design of new molecules as potential pharmaceutical agents is of particular interest. The interactions of such small molecules with their protein targets is also a focus. Collaborative work with synthetic chemists at the University of Wollongong is concerned with antiviral agents. Collaborative work with colleagues at the UNSW is concerned with molecules selectively modulating cell signalling through adrenergic receptors.
