Prestwich Research Group

 After years of work on insect natural products, hormone and pheromone biochemistry, vertebrate steroid biosynthesis, and isoprenoid metabolism, the Prestwich lab focus on three main research areas: (i) new reagents for phosphoinositide and lysophospholipid signaling in cell biology and cancer treatment, (ii) biomaterials for cell therapy, wound repair, cartilage repair, tissue engineering, scar-free healing, toxicology and xenograft models, and (iii) sulfated glycosaminoglycan analogues as inflammation modulators for clinical use. .
