The Britto Group

About Our Group

       The second half of 20th century has witnessed the prowess of chemist's to design and engineer elegant complex molecules. However, there was a shift in the paradigm towards syntheses of molecules with defined function rather than defined structure. As the focus of chemistry changes from structure to function, the present challenge of chemical community is "Synthesis of New Function through engineering of small molecule and biomacromolecules". Towards that goal, our group interest is designing new (macro) molecules for applications in the area of Chemical Biology/Physiology and Molecular Imaging.
