Novel Drug Development & its Effects

The Novel Drug Discovery Program focuses on activity guided isolation and structure elucidation of bioactive compounds from natural sources with high throughput screening. The program includes synthesis of bioactive compounds, analogues and internal standards for further drug development and bioavailability studies. Novel therapies are therapies entirely new to veterinary medicine either because they are genuinely novel and have not been previously used in the context of a medicine, or new only to the veterinary domain, although well known in terms of research, and possibly in the context of human medicine.
