The Hauptman-Woodward Medical Research Institute is an independent, nonprofit biomedical research facility. For almost half a century, the company s scientists have been committed to improving human health through study, at a molecular level, of the causes and potential cures of many diseases. In contrast to clinical research, the focus of Hauptman-Woodward s basic research is to determine the structures of individual substances, such as proteins, that play a role in the development of specific diseases. Working under the leadership of Nobel-Laureate Herbert Hauptman, the institute s scientists use the techniques of molecular biology, biochemistry and crystallography to provide the starting point for better drug design. In addition, other research ongoing at HWI seeks to improve the methods of crystallization and data analysis used for molecular structure determination by scientists worldwide. The Hauptman-Woodward Medical Research Institute is headquartered in Buffalo, N.Y.
