The Department of Drug Discovery and Development offers dynamic opportunities for cutting-edge research and graduate education in all aspects of drug discovery and development. One objective is to prepare graduate students for careers as independent scientists by providing them with a strong basic science background and the ability to translate basic scientific discoveries into therapeutics.

Drug Discovery and Development faculty pursue research in a variety of areas, including neuroscience and neurodegenerative diseases, cardiovascular biology and disease, diabetes and other metabolic diseases, cancer, infectious diseases, forensic analytical chemistry, synthetic organic chemistry, and drug delivery, disposition and formulation.

The department also utilizes the 37,000-square-foot Pharmacy Research Building, with space for 14 principal investigators and more than 80 students.
