Predrag Cudic, Ph.D.
RESEARCH INTERESTS
Bioorganic/Biomimetic Chemistry, Synthetic Organic Chemistry, Peptide Chemistry, Molecular Recognition
Our research interest is focused on design, synthesis and evaluation of biologically active organic compounds. This encompasses development of new chemotherapeutics and chemosensors, solution and solid-phase synthesis and methodology, structure-activity relationship studies, combinatorial chemistry, and elucidation of the mode of action at the molecular level of some active compounds. The following projects are currently underway:
- Cyclic depsipeptides: promising lead compounds for drug discovery
- Novel organo-peptide anticancer drugs and diagnostics that target tumor cells specific carbohydrates
