Research Interests

Drug discovery, computational chemistry
Neurodegeneration
Oncology
Metabolic syndrome

Dr. Chatterjee current research interest focuses on drug-discovery projects related to the development of modulators on Kinase, and Nuclear Hormone receptor targets. We are developing drug molecules to target diseases like Alzheimer Disease, Cancer, Obesity, and Type 2 Diabetes. The research involves virtual screening, core medicinal chemistry, structure-activity-relationship, analytical chemistry, and computational chemistry. We utilize these techniques to screen, design, synthesize, and characterize new molecules for the targets.
