It is my greatest honor to be selected as a Packard Fellow this year Packard Foundation UCSB Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry! I look forward to further growing our program and developing new biocatalytic reactions that are not known in organic chemistry and biochemistry packard.org/insights/news/…

Thank you for the highlight, Angie R Angeles! The DOC GRS was a great experience and I really enjoyed talking to fellow graduate students and faculty at the symposium held in Austin, Texas back in 2015.

It is my greatest pleasure to become a Sloan Research Fellow this year! I am grateful to my group who did all the work and my nominators who supported my application. Looking forward to accomplishing more in biocatalysis, enzyme design and enzyme engineering!

Despite its synthetic utility, catalytic enantioselective Smiles rearrangement has remained a challenge. We engineered P450Smiles to provide a solution: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…
