Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, JSS College of Pharmacy

The Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry established in the year 1988, aims to impart quality education in Pharmaceutical Chemistry at UG, PG and doctorate levels. This programme was tailored so that the students receives a sound knowledge in the a t the students receives a sound knowledge in the aspects of organic, medicinal and biochemistry. We strive to contribute to a chemically literate society through teaching, scholarship, and service. We provide our students with an enriching array of educational experiences, including hands-on participation in faculty-led research. We deliver expertise in the emerging areas of Drug Design and Development, Documentation/Research writing expertise. The department is also committed to deliver skills in the innovative processes for the manufacturing drug and drug intermediates, API Handling and Patenting. We have expertise in Custom synthesis of small heterocyles and new chemical entities (NCEs), Ligand and structure based drug design, in silico virtual screening and other molecular modeling techniques. Our broad research areas are Structure-based approaches to antibacterial and anticancer drug discovery, Computational Modeling of neuroprotective agents against Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Disease. Vision : To impart knowledge in the emerging areas of target based drug design and custom synthesis. Mission : Hit to Lead and Lead Optimization, Innovative Process Development for the Synthesis of Drugs and Drug Intermediates. In silico drug discovery for cancer therapeutics Rational design and delivery of polymers-drug conjugate as anticancer therapeutics. Computational modeling of neuroprotective agents against alzheimer’s and parkinson’s Disease Custom synthesis of novel new chemical entities (NCEs) Structure-based approaches to antimicrobial drug discovery Isolation, characterization & evaluation of bioactive constituents from natural sources. ...view more
