Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success.  -Henry Ford

This year, there are 2 spots for Graduate Students in our labs (BAGLEY HALL 152-162) on NSF and NIH-funded projects! Please contact the lab at chatterjee@chem.washington.edu

The Chatterjee Lab looks forward to meeting team players excited about organic synthesis, protein chemistry, cell biology, and applications of semisynthetic technologies. Whether you are a prospective technician, graduate student, or post-doctoral fellow, if you want to learn more about our work please feel free to shoot us an email.

WHAT IS A CAREER IN CHEMICAL BIOLOGY? Alumni from the Chatterjee laboratory can expect to have exciting careers as faculty members (Dr. Paul Lawrence – University of Central Florida, and Dr. Aurea Chu- Baylor University) at research universities, medical schools, and 4-year colleges; and as research scientists at innovative start-up companies (Dr. Caroline Weller – Revolution Medicines, Dr. Markandeya Nagula- Chemedsyn Life Sciences, Dr. Sumeet Singh- Neurocrine Biosciences), leading corporations (Dr. Patrick Shelton- Pfizer), government laboratories (Capt. Christa Schiesswohl, MS Thesis ’16 – Air Force Research Labs, Meihuan Ji, MS Thesis 20′- Beijing Normal University). The strong training provided by our comprehensive approach to scientific inquiry provides opportunities to master organic synthesis, bioanlaytical separations, biophyscial measurements, molecular biology and biochemistry. The best part of a career in chemical biology is identifying the fundamental physico-chemical principles that drive human biology and designing tools to probe and tweak proteins, cells, tissues and whole organisms.
