As biological processes all stem from chemical events, it should be possible to understand or manipulate biological events by using chemistry. Uesugi and his co-workers have been discovering or designing unique organic molecules that modulate or interrogate fundamental processes in human cells. Such synthetic organic molecules often serve as tools for basic cell biology and for dissecting diseases. In particular, he has a special interest in combining chemical biology and material science concepts to open new avenues in cell biology and medical applications.
