About
An alumnus of the University of Delhi, Dr. Jeetender Chugh received his Doctorate in Chemistry from Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai, in 2008, where he used Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy as a tool for the study of bio-macromolecules. Dr. Chugh developed novel strategies that allowed, for the first time, studying the formation of megadalton-sized self-assembly of proteins by NMR. Dr. Chugh also created NMR pulse sequences that allowed fast resonance assignment of proteins. After his Ph.D., he worked as a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Michigan, USA. During his four years of postdoctoral training, he broadened his research outlook and gained experience in studying the dynamics of nucleic acids, fluorinated peptides, and live viruses by NMR.
Currently, he is a faculty member in the Departments of Chemistry and Biology at IISER Pune. He is exploring molecular dynamics at the interface of protein-RNA interaction by NMR and applying NMR-based metabolomics to a variety of biological problems.
