Dr. chem. Peteris Trapencieris |
Laboratory of Organic Chemistry was developed in 2001. Nowadays it has employed 9 researchers, among them are 2 PhD students. Laboratory personnel is involved in publicly finansed as well as contract research projects. Researchers have gained expertise in new drug design and development, nitrogen heterocycle synthesis methodology and isolation of natural products and their investigation.
