Facilities
The research activities are performed in the building of the G. Ronzoni Foundation. The Institute has about 1,000 sq. meters of laboratory and office space, including chemistry, biochemistry (including a walk-in cold room) and instrumental laboratories, fully equipped with state-of-the-art instrumentation, dedicated to chemical preparations, biochemistry and structural research. Research facilities include the LC-MS, chromatography, physico-chemical laboratories and NMR Centre
