General and Organic Chemistry Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The department AOSC mainly develops research in the areas of: 1. Organometallic Chemistry: Synthesis and characterisation of organotin compounds with potential anti-cancer activity. Structure determination (M. Gielen); 2. High Resolution Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Synthesis and characterisation of organotin polymers for applications in anion recognition and catalysis through advanced structure elucidation by multinuclear and multidimensional ...
Molecular and Biochemical Pharmacology Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The main objectives of research within MBFA are: 1. Identification and characterisation of hormone and neurotransmitter receptors. We are especially interested in the difference between agonist- and antagonist- receptor interactions and in the pharmacology of new receptor subclasses. This may contribute to the development of new and more efficient drugs for clinical therapy. 2. Investigation of the mechanisms of receptor regulation by ...
