Overview
The Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry was combined in early 2010 with three 
other pharmaceutical units into the School of Pharmacy at the UEF Faculty of Health 
Sciences. The chemistry research at the unit is multidisciplinary with mainly 30 per 
cent analytical chemistry, 30 per cent theoretical chemistry, 10 per cent organic 
chemistry and 30 per cent medicinal chemistry. Over the reviewed period, the unit 
had an average research staff of four professors, 14 senior or postdoctoral researchers, 
24 postgraduate students and two graduate students, three technicians and one part-
time administrative officer. External funding, most importantly from Tekes and the 
Academy of Finland, represents more than one-third of the total budget.
