Researchers at Peter Mac strive to link recent advances in genetics, genomics, cell and chemical biology, pharmacology and medicine for improved drug target discovery through the efforts of our research laboratories and core facilities. Approaches include in vitro and in vivo screening, small molecule high-throughput screening, pre-clinical imaging and genetically engineered mouse models, among many others.
