Meet NUS Presidential Young Professor, Dr Alexander Vinogradov,

“Hi – I am Alex, and I recently joined the Department as an Assistant Professor. I obtained my PhD from MIT working under the supervision of Prof. Pentelute in the areas of peptide chemistry and biochemistry. I then moved to Japan to work with Prof. Suga on developing peptide-centric drug discovery platforms where I spent over 7 years: first as a post-doc, and then as a Project Assistant Professor. In December 2024, I joined NUS as a Presidential Young Professor. My research interests combine the study of enzymes with ultra-high-throughput experimentation and deep learning to construct novel platforms for drug discovery.”
