| Research 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.
