His previous employer a major demolition and salvage company in the Lower Mainland, entrusted his expertise to buy the salvage rights from upcoming demolition projects from other contractors.

Cameron's responsibilities were to oversee and participate with the project salvage being removed and then finally appraise these materials for sale. Cameron has strong marketing sales skills and has extensive knowledge of the products from demolition that will be useful for re-use and also the ability to define those that should be recycled.

Teaching Chemical Biology - molecular mimicry, glycomimetics, protein-ligand interactions, immunochemistry, enzyme inhibitors, NMR/molecular modeling, drug and vaccine design

Our group is studying the nature and origin of carbohydrate mimicry for the purpose of drug and vaccine design. We take our leads from molecular mimicry displayed by Nature. Our goals are the understanding of the molecular mechanisms of recognition that can be used to tailor specific immune responses or inhibit specific enzymatic reactions. The results have implications for the control or treatment of bacterial and viral diseases, diabetes Type 2, and cancer.

He is a Fellow of the Chemical Institute of Canada, and was elected to the Academy of Sciences of the Royal Society of Canada in 2003. Dr. Pinto is a pioneer in the field of chemical biology, having developed novel NMR/molecular modeling protocols for protein structure determination and the study of ligand topographies essential for drug and vaccine design, and is the founder of Mimos Therapeutics Inc.
