Sleebs Lab

Our lab focus is chemical biology and drug discovery.

Our laboratory applies chemical biology and medical chemistry techniques to investigate and better understand biological processes that cause disease progression. Our goal is to translate the basic understanding of biological mechanisms into new therapeutics to treat cancers and infectious diseases, such as malaria.

We enable the creation of targeted molecular tools to understand mechanisms that cause cancer and infectious disease en route to developing transformative therapeutics for the benefit of all.

Our laboratory has created novel targeted molecular tools that have been used to uncover mechanisms that have essential roles in the pathogenesis of cancer and infectious disease. Translationally, we have applied this fundamental research to the development of transformative treatments for cancer and infectious disease.
