Research Centers & Institutes

The Center for the Advancement of Pharmacy Practice (CAPP) endeavors to transform pharmacy practice by providing education, training, and resources to pharmacy stakeholders and engaging in partnerships dedicated to the implementation of innovative and sustainable practice models.

The Center for Pharmaceutical Research and Innovation (CPRI) facilitates UK-based translational research and education, advance new treatments and strategies to address major health challenges in the commonwealth, and foster pharmaceutical commercialization and economic development opportunities in Kentucky.

As a Center of Biomedical Research Excellence (COBRE, NIH P20 GM130456), the mission of the Center for Pharmaceutical Research and Innovation (CPRI) COBRE for Translational Chemical Biology is to support junior faculty career development, advance impactful translational chemical biology research/tools, and stimulate transdisciplinary collaboration, research innovation and early translation.

Our Institute for Pharmaceutical Outcomes & Policy (IPOP) researchers are national leaders in translating science into policy and outcomes through research, consultation, training, and community outreach targeting safe, efficient, and effective use of medications.

With state-of-the-art facilities, innovative computational modeling/design strategies and approaches, and unique expertise available, the Molecular Modeling and Biopharmaceutical Center (MMBC) engages UK investigators and beyond.

The Pharmacy Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (PharmNMR) Center allows researchers to measure the structure of small molecules and peptides and serves as a catalyst for improving access to large scale scientific instruments for the University and the Commonwealth
