Dr Debnath and his team have focused on the structure of the binding site between the virus and host cells that is critical for the establishment of infection. They have therefore been working on small inhibitory molecules targeted at this site and have identified several promising candidates suitable for further drug development leading to a new class of anti-HIV therapeutics.

Dr Boyer’s work focusing on the evolution of primates uses the fossil record as a key resource for understanding the interplay between form and function in evolutionary contexts. He founded MorphoSource and manages its development and governance.
