Research profile
The unit has two main research topics: bioorganic chemistry (nucleic acids, natural
products) and radiochemistry. The organic chemistry fits well into three of the six
profiling areas of UTU. The focus of the nucleic acid research is on chemical models
of ribozymes, oligonucleotide conjugates, pro-drug strategies and large-scale
synthesis of oligonucleotides. Natural product chemistry has been established with a
new professorship very recently. The radiochemistry group is vitally integrated
within the Turku PET (positron emission tomography) Centre with an excellent
research environment. As for the nucleic acid chemistry, applications towards
medicinal chemistry are very attractive.
