Chemistry and Medicinal Chemistry

Computational Chemistry Research

Mass spectrometry has historically been used in clinical laboratories for drug of abuse confirmations, new born screening, and steroid analysis. The clinical applications of mass spectrometry are expanding, and the technique is now used in almost every area of laboratory medicine. Computational chemistry is the study of the structures and properties of molecules and materials using computer modelling and simulation, including ab initio methods focused on quantum chemistry and analytical approaches.
