Medicinal Chemistry & Chemical BiologyCAO code: DN200 Option: Chemistry & Chemical Sciences (CCS)

I enjoyed

practical lab

work, drug

development,

organic chemistry

and aspects of pharmacology

that I probably would not have

realised if I had chosen a

specialisation straight out of

school. I hope to do a masters

in organic chemistry or

instrumental analysis when I

graduate.

Tricia Madden, Student

UV determination of enzyme kineticsis a key step in the design ofindustrially relevant biocatalysts.

n Learn how to apply the tools

of Chemistry to study

biological systems

n Develop experience in

techniques and

instrumentation used in the

pharmaceutical industry,

e.g., the synthesis,

identification and analysis

of chemicals
