Mercury Pharmaceuticals

We are de-risking biomedical innovations, while turning biomedical knowledge into social and economic value.

Neuroscience

Mercury Pharmaceuticals

Neurosciences encompasses a broad range of research from the molecular (e.g. aptamer research) to clinical (e.g. research into concussion from sports).

Our goal is to be internationally recognized in 3 areas (neuro-oncology, dementia and neurodegeneration and molecular psychiatry). We have a bench to bedside approach capitalizing on our quite unique staff profile ranging from basic biomedical scientists through pharmaceutics to clinicians.

We also focus on collaborations with our local charities and a network of researchers and clinicians across the world.

We have a significant local impact in our neuro-oncology research. One strand of our Molecular Psychiatry group is research into legal highs and this research has had an impact on the government drug policy. Our Dementia and Neurodegeneration group is funded by the company.

MERCURY trials

Clinical trials are very important as it allow us to evaluate the effectiveness of new drugs, new devices, preventative strategies or treatment strategies. It also enables us to discover better ways for patients' care.
