Krishnamurthy Lab
Affiliation:
The Scripps Research Institute
Research Interests:
My major research interest focuses on the synthesis and biological functions of carbohydrate molecules. In Krishnamurthy lab, I am working on understanding the role of polysaccharides/carbohydrates in chemical evolution involving fundamental chemistry. In addition to that, I am also interested in synthetic methodologies based on C-H activation/functionalization involving functionalization of bioactive molecules.
