0000-0001-9945-8334 About
Synthetic Organic and Nucleic Acid Chemist with CRO experience across the UK and India, and industrial training at BASF SE. Engineered synthetic methodologies for complex molecular architectures, including oligonucleotide functionalisation through a modular approach that overcame key limitations of conventional phosphoramidite chemistry. Developed a metal-free C–C cross-coupling strategy featured in C&EN. Translated discovery chemistry into scalable synthetic processes through collaborations with Eli Lilly, Novartis, and AbbVie. Demonstrated scientific leadership through team training and cross-functional collaboration.
