Research Statement:“Our research focuses on two complementary areas: the
discovery of new organic reactions and bioorganic chemistry. We are particularly interested in designing novel methods and strategies for the construction of complex natural products with important biological attributes. Our methodology programs encompass assembling molecules and introducing stereogenic centers using new catalytic reactions.”
