Bio: Chi P. Ting was born in Hong Kong and grew up in Chicago, Illinois. He received a B.S. degree in chemistry at the University of Illinois at Urbana−Champaign, where he worked under the direction of Prof. Steven Zimmerman. In 2012, he began doctoral studies at the University of California, Berkeley working with Prof. Tom Maimone. For his Ph.D., Chi completed the total syntheses of aryltetralin lignans and complex meroterpenes. At Berkeley, Chi was the recipient of a NSF predoctoral fellowship and the Bristol-Myers Squibb graduate fellowship. In 2017, he returned to the University of Illinois for postdoctoral studies in biochemistry. In the van der Donk lab, he studied the biosynthesis of amino acid-derived natural products as a NIH postdoctoral fellow. In 2020, Chi started his independent career at Brandeis University as an assistant professor of chemistry. For more information about Prof. Ting's research: General 5 — Ting Lab
