Small molecule synthesis is a core aspect of drug discovery and medicinal chemistry, involving the design and chemical construction of low molecular weight compounds with specific biological, physical or chemical properties. These molecules play essential roles in research, acting as…

Bioconjugation refers to the process of chemically linking two molecules to form a single hybrid compound. Typically, it involves attaching a biomolecule (like a protein, antibody, peptide, or nucleic acid) to another functional molecule, such as a drug, fluorescent dye,…

Lipid-based nanoparticles (LNPs) are tiny, fat-based “bubbles” that carry medicines like RNA or small drugs safely through the body, protecting them until they reach their target. First explored in the 1990s as a way to improve drug delivery, these microscopic…
