A major player in academic research within the Pharmacy Department of the Université Paris-Saclay, the CNRS BioCIS (Biomolecules: Design, Isolation, Synthesis) Joint Research Unit perpetuates excellence in the fields of organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry by covering a broad spectrum of expertise:

• in natural substances, as a source of inspiration for biologically active molecules;
• in organometallic catalysis and the development of synthetic methodologies (peptides & peptidomimetics; fluorinated molecules, glycochemistry, etc.);
• in molecular modeling; and
• in the rational design of new chemical entities (NCEs) for therapeutic purposes and understanding their mode of action.
