Assistant Professor
University of New Mexico

Brian obtained his Ph.D. under the supervision of Prof. Igor V. Alabugin, where he honed his knowledge of organic structure and reactivity through the lens of stereoelectronic effects. He then carried out postdoctoral research in chemical biology under the supervision of Prof. Ronald T. Raines at the University of Wisconsin—Madison and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology—providing a taste of some of the best cheese and worst football, respectively.
