Training a new generation of PhD students to be leaders of enterprise, molecular technology innovation & translation
About us
The ICB CDT trains the next generation of PhD students to be leaders of enterprise, molecular technology innovation & translation. Chemical Biology is critical to supporting the development and translation of the next generation of molecular tools and technologies for making, measuring, modelling and manipulating molecular interactions in biological systems across multiple length scales. These include protein-nucleic acid, lipid-drug, lipid-nucleic acid and protein-protein interactions. Despite their increasing importance as targets for intervention in biological systems, their exploitation is hampered by many factors which are being tackled by the ICB community. These include large contact surface areas, the absence of readily identifiable binding pockets, low concentrations of particular binding partners, the multi-component nature of these interactions, the multiple time and length-scales over which they occur and a limited understanding of how these interactions combine to generate higher order functions. The development of novel molecular tools and technologies will enhance quantitative capabilities that can address these bottlenecks is vital to providing the quantity, quality and type of data needed for predictive modelling and downstream commercial and medical exploitation of these spatially dispersed multipoint interactions. They also have the potential to generate IP with significant potential for commercial exploitation, in their own right (through commercialisation in the instrumentation sector). From enabling biological and biomedical research by unlocking the molecular mechanisms of disease, through to stimulating the design of improved agrochemicals and increasing our understanding of the link between diet and the microbiome, chemical biology is pivotal in reducing the spiraling cost of product development and healthcare.

🧠🌟 Celebrating Mental Health 🎲 We believe mental health deserves as much celebration as academic and professional achievements. That’s why we hosted the Board Games & Lunch event – a creative way to foster well-being and unite our community. We relaxed and recharged with engaging board games🎲 while enjoying our lunch! We want to acknowledge the essential role of mental health in our success and happiness. We want to prioritise well-being by creating opportunities for meaningful conversations outside of our day-to-day responsibilities. 🌱 This initiative reminds us that it’s okay to take a break, talk about how we’re feeling, and support one another in our mental health journeys. #MentalHealthDay #CelebratingWellBeing #BoardGamesForWellbeing #MentalHealthAwareness #WorkLifeBalance
