Edinburgh Drug Discovery

Intellectual Property

Our ground-breaking research has generated diverse intellectual property interests.

Chemical compounds

We have not only identified myriad new compounds and biologicals for disease treatment, but have been granted patents for novel targets and target combinations as well as new methods for screening and drug delivery.
