技术转化中心

NIBS是世界一流的生命科学研究机构，聚集众多优秀的从事生命科学研究的科学家，他们致力于寻找导致疾病和生命进程的根源，其许多研究成果具有极大开发潜力用以作为研发新的药物或作为疾病早期检测的靶点。本中心的目标之一就是开发基础科研成果的应用潜质。我们实验室配以先进的仪器装备，如400MHz Verian核磁共振仪、制备型Waters液质联用仪、分析型Agilent高效液相色谱仪、傅立叶变换红外光谱仪、旋光仪、CEM微波反应仪、和自动化高通量筛选工作站等，应用现代药物研发的新技术、新手段和新理念（蛋白晶体结构、计算机辅助设计、组合化学及高通量筛选等技术）来实现自主研发新药的目标。实验室近期将专注于治疗癌症和糖尿病的小分子药物研发。

新药物的研发虽是一个漫长、昂贵的和艰辛的历程，无数人的千辛万苦常常是以失败为结局，但这并不能阻挡有志之师顽强地追求他们美妙的梦想−解除患者痛苦、带给病人希望、享受那成功摘冠的喜悦。这也是我们的追求和梦想。

Research Description

Although it is an arduous, expensive, and difficult task, accompanied by seemingly low success rates, the accomplishment of creating and successfully delivering a new drug is a sweet dream that attracts many scientists and companies that are willing to spend great deals of effort and money to achieve it. Our lab is a determined group of people with that certain dream.

NIBS is a world class research institute. Some research results found by our scientists at NIBS would be great potential targets for the development of new drugs. It is one of our many goals to evaluate and study the possibility of developing new drugs based on those targets, using the latest technology and tools such as Structure Based Drug Design (SBDD) and High Throughput Screening (HTS). Our lab will focus on developing small molecule drugs for cancer and diabetes treatments.
