Anna M. Gutridge's research focuses on studying and chemically modifying opioid receptor-targeting compounds, many derived from natural plant alkaloids (such as those from kratom and akuamma plants), to understand how they interact with the body's opioid receptors. Her work explores potential therapies for conditions like alcohol use disorder, opioid overdose, and pain management, while aiming to reduce the harmful side effects typically associated with opioid drugs.
