GSK Ties in with University Training

Undergraduates at the University of Nottingham will be able to get first-hand experience of drug discovery as part of a new module run in collaboration with GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) and the University’s School of Chemistry.

It will introduce chemistry students to the medicinal chemistry skills the pharmaceutical industry requires, while also enhancing knowledge transfer between industry and academia.

The students will work on new chemicalbased drugs for use in the fight against respiratory diseases like asthma. Chris Moody, Sir Jesse Boot Professor and Head of Organic Chemistry at The University of Nottingham, said:

“This collaboration represents a unique opportunity for our students and for the University’s School of Chemistry to share expertise, effectively develop the UK’s chemistry talent and develop new cross drugdiscovery networks.

“We are delighted to develop this partnership with GSK, an organisation which has a reputation for excellence in chemistry.”
