Steven M. Massey's work focuses on designing and chemically synthesizing new drug-like compounds that target brain receptors, particularly dopamine and glutamate receptors, and characterizing their crystal structures and pharmacological effects. This research is relevant to developing potential treatments for neurological and psychiatric conditions by creating molecules that selectively activate or modulate specific brain receptor subtypes.
