The Centre for Translational and Interdisciplinary Research will have the capacity to house 100 research and support staff when opened and about 180 when fully developed. Augmenting our Drug Discovery Unit will help build a powerful pipeline, translating excellent and innovative bioscience into solutions for unmet medical needs in:
- Neglected tropical diseases such as African trypanosomiasis, Leishmaniasis, Chagas disease, Tuberculosis and Malaria
- Other therapeutic areas such as cancer, anti-bacterials, eczema, type 2 diabetes, and Huntington’s diseases, where innovative drug targets discovered at the University of Dundee and other institutes world-wide can be advanced into new therapeutics
In the second floor of the CTIR, Mathematical Biology and Biophysics, Bioinformatics, Data Analysis and Software Development will be brought into juxtaposition and will offer a unique chance to focus not just on individual excellence but on cultivating innovative collective scientific endeavour towards translating world-class research to deliver new knowledge and new therapeutics
