Academic Collaborations

A close link with leading research groups and experts is an important asset for exploring novel insights in our core competencies, for applying up-to-date scientific know-how and for staying at the forefront of the scientific development. 7TM Pharma has established a number of collaborative alliances with key scientists in the GPCR and metabolic fields and are presently collaborating with:

King’s College, UK

7TM Pharma collaborates with Prof. Helen Cox for assessment of the ex vivo efficacy of the Y receptor agonists in human tissue. Prof. Cox has been engaged in work on the Y receptor system for 25 years and has a scientific track record in GI tract cellular function. The access to human tissue is a unique opportunity and asset for 7TM Pharma’s efficacy studies.
