The Drug Discovery Zone was a themed zone supported by Wellcome. It featured six scientists:

  • Sebastian Cosgrove, who uses flow chemistry and enzymes to better control chemical reactions.
  • Padhmanand Sudhakar, a computational biologist who engages with policy makers and politicians.
  • Lee Steinberg, the winner of the Drug Discovery Zone, uses supercomputers to design new drugs and predict how they will behave.
  • Jennifer Harris, who helps scientists discover and develop new treatments for patients.
  • Fiona Scott, who makes new molecules in an effort to help cure cancer.
  • Eleanor Senior, who tests the behaviour of cow parasites in order to locate genes for further testing.
