Research Interest

From 1995 until today, Dr. Ferdinando Fiorino has been doing full-time research at the Department of Pharmaceutical and Toxicology Chemistry at the University of Naples "Federico II". Dr. Fiorino's research represents the continuation of studies undertaken in the last decade and, in particular, based on the subject, can be divided into the following two directions: 1) Synthesis and relationship structure activity in series of both heterogeneous and biologically active peptide or pseudopeptide compounds; 2) Development and application of new synthetic methodologies;
