Anand Muthusamy

Anand is currently a graduate student in the Division of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering at Caltech. He recently joined the Lester group in order to pursue his interest in chemistry and neuroscience. Prior to this, Anand worked for Prof. E James Petersson at U Penn where he worked on unnatural amino acid mutagenesis to control enzyme function and organic synthesis for the development of fluorescent unnatural amino acids as biophysical probes. He then worked for Dr. Luke Lavis at Janelia Research Campus where he used synthetic organic chemistry to make molecular probes.
