In 2005, I was invited to join Faculty of Chemistry as a doctorate fellow in the research group of Prof. Helen Stoeckli-Evans for nanoporous materials and chemical crystallography at the University of Neuchatel, Switzerland and obtained doctorate (PhD) degree in August 2008 with distinction. During PhD; my research was focused on the synthesis of ligands and metal based metal based anticancer and tuberculosis compounds and networks for potential applications for medicinal purposes. I wrote my thesis under the title “Silver(I) and Other Coin Metal Complexes of N, O, S and P containing Ligands: Structures and Biological Properties”. Metal based medicinal chemistry research involves the development of new synthetic methods and strategies, and investigations towards their potential applications and understanding the crucial structure-property relationships in them. This enables us to engineer new materials at the molecular level to give optimal performance.
