The aim of the Institute is to conduct independent basic research in organic chemistry and biochemistry and in molecular-oriented disciplines related to organic chemistry and biochemistry, with great heed paid to the application of the results in practice. The research focuses mainly on the following fields: nucleic acid components, proteins, peptides, natural products, synthetic functional molecules and molecular modeling.
The principal activity of the IOCB is scientific research in the fields of organic chemistry, biochemistry, molecular and cellular biology, computational chemistry, physico-organic chemistry and biochemistry and in related disciplines, e.g. medicinal chemistry, bioorganic chemistry, bioinorganic chemistry and molecular pharmacology. The research is focused especially on medicinal applications and applications aimed at plant and animal protection, the development of new synthetic, biotechnological, analytical and computational procedures, the development of functional molecules, the study of the structure, properties and biological activity of substances, the chemistry and biochemistry of peptides, proteins, nucleic acids, natural materials and their components and analogues.
