Minciencias Classification : A1
The Laboratory of Organic and Biomolecular Chemistry (LQOBio) is a research group specializing in scientific and technological development in the fields of organic chemistry, medicinal chemistry, and the Colombian pharmaceutical industry. This group was founded in 2004 by Ph.D. Vladimir V. Kuznetsov. Currently, LQOBio is categorized by Colciencias as group A1, according to the evaluation performed in 2019. Its research lines involve the design and development of synthetic strategies for the preparation of heterocyclic compounds, oriented to molecular diversity, including the synthesis of natural products and their biochemical study, thus working at the interface between organic chemistry and biology. In addition, the laboratory develops the chemistry of new organic materials with photoelectronic applications.
