Welcome to the Rattray Translational Pharmaceutics lab webpage. We are based at the Strathclyde Insitute of Pharmacy and Biomedical Sciences!

Our lab is interested in understanding the biological fate of nanomedicines and biological products to facilitate the development of next-generation medicines. We use cutting-edge analytical technologies to develop models of particle interaction with proteins. Interdisciplinary ways of working sit at the heart of what we do.

We are also interested in understanding the biology of cancer with a specific focus on nuclear import and DNA repair. Through a better characterization of timescales of DNA repair factor recruitment and the elucidating the role of nuclear import, we can develop new drugs for untreatable cancers.

When we are not in the lab and doing science, we are passionate about making our science accessible to the classroom.

If you would be interested in joining our lab for an internship or would like to join us as a PhD candidate, please do not hesitate to contact me!
