We are an interdisciplinary group merging Chemistry, Biology and Medicine to develop the next generation of Dynamic Activatable Fluorophores (DYNAFLUORS) as imaging probes for molecular events associated to infection, inflammation and cancer. We lead the Translational Chemistry theme in Edinburgh and work to deliver new chemical technologies for imaging in humans.
