Research Interests
- Research Interests:
- Synthetic Organic Chemistry • Natural Product Synthesis • Medicinal Chemistry
- Our research lies at the interface of synthetic organic chemistry and drug discovery. Inspired by the structural complexity and elegance of natural products, we develop new synthetic strategies and methodologies aimed at constructing highly functionalized molecules with potential biological activity. Many of the compounds we target—whether isolated from nature or designed in-house—serve as valuable scaffolds for therapeutic development and as benchmarks to push the boundaries of modern synthetic methods. Through this work, we strive to advance both the science of chemical synthesis and its application to real-world problems in human health.
