Gopal Pundlik Jadhav, PhD

Board Membership, Creighton University, Health ans Safety

Assistant Professor

After earning a Masters of Pharmacy from Pune University (India) in 1998, Dr. Gopal worked as a synthetic chemist for a year and taught medicinal chemistry for three years before beginning a PhD at the University of Nottingham (UK). In the five years after his Ph.D., he worked as a post-doctoral research fellow on three projects: one on cancer research, financed by the BBSRC in the UK; another on drug discovery, funded by the Wellcome Trust; and one on osteoporosis, funded by the MRC in the UK.
After that, Dr. Jadhav worked for about two years as a senior research scientist at GlaxoSmithKline's RD Alternative Discovery & Development (Madrid Trescants, Spain) on a collaborative project that involved structural optimization of the hPDE4 inhibitor GSK675728A to produce novel pharmacophore(s) as potent TbrPDE1 inhibitors that are selective over hPDEs in the management of African sleeping sickness (CNS disorder). 
Dr. Gopal started working as a postdoctoral researcher at Creighton University in June 2016 and was later promoted to assistant professor of medicinal chemistry in early 2017. He is presently tenure track faculty in the school of medicine working under Dr. Peter Abel.

Lab Research Focus: Dr. Jadhav’s Lab is aimed at;
A) Molecular docking and Structure Activity Relationship (SAR) based small molecular drug discovery to tackle biological problems such as Neuroinfllamatory disorders, Cancers, Noise induced hearing loss (NIHL) and Antibiotic resistant Bacterial infections. Current projects involve (1) Development of Triggering receptors expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM1) inhibitors to treat neuronal disorders, NIHL and liver cancer. (2) Development of small molecules as Mvfr inhibitors to treat antibiotic resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections. 
B) PROTAC (Proteolysis targeting chimeras) therapeutics: to address liver cancer and Neuroinflmmations.
C) Dual conjugates of Latanoprost acid  to release Nitrous oxide (NO) and Hydrogen suflide (H2S) in the management of gloucoma.
