Hello, #Chemiverse! We finally made it to Mastodon and can't wait to reconnect with the #chemistry community! But first, let us (re)introduce ourselves:
We're a #medicinalchemistry lab in the Centre for Medicinal Chemistry at the University of Toronto Mississauga. Our lab is a dynamic research environment with pharma-quality facilities. Research translation is a central goal of our work, and several companies have sprung out of technologies developed in our lab!

Our recent work has focused on the development of small-molecule inhibitors for #HDAC enzymes as well as the "undruggable" transcription factors #STAT3 and #STAT5 as potential treatments for hematological malignancies and other cancers.
