An image from Wellcome featuring Anjuli Sharma, Research Manager. A quote from Anjuli reads: "We want to accelerate drug discovery for depression, anxiety and psychosis. So, we're funding a crucial yet often overlooked stage in drug development: target validation." Anjuli stands smiling at the camera, wearing glasses, a green shirt and a smart jacket.
