Dr. Anh Nguyen is an ARC DECRA Fellow and Head of the GPCR EcoPharmacology Lab within the Drug Discovery Biology Theme at Monash Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences. His research focuses on decoding drug-receptor interactions, particularly the role of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) in the discovery of next-generation therapeutics, including allosteric biased ligands for cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. Dr. Nguyen leads a multidisciplinary program that integrates molecular pharmacology, molecular modeling, high-throughput screening, and artificial intelligence to develop a GPCR-targeted drug discovery platform. He also pioneers research into environmental pollutants, specifically micro- and nanoplastics, and their effects on GPCR signaling, aiming to uncover novel mechanisms linking pollution to cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. As a dedicated mentor, he fosters a supportive and collaborative interdisciplinary environment for students, encouraging those with passions in GPCR biology, computational pharmacology, and environmental toxicology to explore available opportunities. Dr. Nguyen has been involved in various projects and collaborations, contributing to advancements in pharmacology and drug discovery education.
