Congratulations to Aakash Pal @AakashPal15785 for passing his PhD candidacy exam with flying colors earlier this month! His first paper from our group has just been accepted for publication in JACS and so it is a double celebration! Way to go, Aakash! 👏 👏
Congrats to now Dr. Michelle Hendricks on earning her PhD degree! 🎓👏 Michelle has led excellent research on macrocyclic peptides for therapeutic applications and been an invaluable member of our lab! Best wishes for your new job at MSD. We’ll miss you, Michelle - go shine!🌟
We’re hiring postdocs to engineer & evolve peptide/protein therapeutics. Experience in display technologies, peptide/protein chemistry, and/or protein engineering/comput design required. Apply at jobs.utdallas.edu/postings/3… and email me with CV and cover letter
Congratulations to our Pamela (now Dr. Pamela Agredo Sanin) for earning her PhD degree in Chemistry this past week! 👏 👏 Pamela has developed new strategies for the design and evolution of macrocyclic peptides for therapeutic applications! Congrats, Dr. Agredo! 🎉🎉
Kudos to our UG students and summer interns for doing a fantastic job at presenting their research at the SPUR Symposium @UT_Dallas! From left: Tanish Shetty, Sophie Zamora, Joshua Legawa, Aliza Sheikh (Clark Fellow), Bolutife Odunuga (Clark Fellow), and John Cooley (REU)👏👏
Check out our latest paper in @angew_chem on the stereoselective synthesis of aminals via direct, enzyme-catalyzed intermolecular C(sp3)-H amidation of azacycles!

Job alert! We are looking to hire an Associate Director for the Center for High Throughput Reaction Discovery & Synthesis Center (HT-RDS; ht-rds.utdallas.edu/) @UT_Dallas Interested candidates should apply at: jobs.utdallas.edu/postings/3…
X Excited to have shared our science at the 5th iCHAT conference in beautiful Villa Mondragone near Rome. Great combination of cutting-edge science, warm atmosphere, and amazing location. Kudos to Massimo Bietti and the other organizers for putting together a great event!👏
Congrats to newly minted Dr. Bo Couture for earning his PhD degree in Chemistry @UTDallasChemBio !!👏 Bo has developed new biocatalytic strategies for stereoselective C(sp3)-H functionalization via carbene transfer. Congrats Bo and best luck with your career in pharma!
Honoring the exceptional women in the @FasanLab at @UT_Dallas whose insight, dedication, and curiosity elevate our work every day! Happy International Day of Women and Girls in Science to Anwita, Francesca, Michelle, Pamela, Ru, Shreya, Sophie, and Zoe! 🎉
A great visit by Prof. Yi Lu at UT Austin as our departmental seminar speaker this past week! We really enjoyed hearing about his group's exciting work in the design of artificial enzymes and DNA-based sensors for diagnostics. Inspiring science and great discussion!
Delighted to share our publication in @NatureComms on the computational design of generalist carbene transferases with tailored, stereodivergent selectivity! Great collab with Sagar Khare! Kudos to Zhuofan, Mary, and Xinkun and all other coauthors!

@FasanLab @UT_Dallas develops a new powerful method for skeletal editing of complex natural products at aliphatic C-H sites by combining site-selective and tunable enzymatic hydroxylation with chemical oxidation/ring expansion. Read on: • onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
Very grateful to Benjamin List and Kateryna Kryvous for selecting our paper on a photobiocatalytic strategy for C(sp3)-H acylation for a highlight in Synfacts!
