An Introduction to Peptide Chemistry

About the Author Patrick Bailey graduated from St Catherine's College, Oxford in 1980, and remained there to carry out his DPhil on peptide chemistry in Dr G.T. Young's laboratory. He took up his Lectureship in the Department of Chemistry at York in 1983, and gained a 5-year Career Development Award from the Yorkshire Cancer Research Campaign in 1986. His research work is divided into two main areas: the discovery and application of new methods in asymmetric synthesis, and the design and preparation of novel cyclic peptides for studies into molecular recognition.
