In our third episode of Ask a Scientist, we sat down with Professor Das Thamatoor, Professor of Organic Chemistry at Dartmouth College, to broaden our view of modern synthetic chemistry, exploring how groundbreaking C‑H functionalization, green‑reaction design, and collaborations like the DHARMA project are reshaping drug discovery, tackling dual‑use concerns, and showing undergraduate students that the molecules they build can be both scientifically elegant and socially responsible.
