On episode 8 of Under the Surface, we’re joined
by The Molecular
Assassin, Arijit Basu. Arijit describes his journey from
India to the US via a transformative sabbatical in Israel. Landing
in the Langer lab at MIT and then finding his industrial legs,
Arijit turns to computational toxicology as a way to ensure that
drug hunters enable the concept of Safety by Design as a core
tenant for how they’re navigating chemical space. He doesn’t
discuss how he got his cool nickname though, so if that’s what
you’re after, you will be out of luck.
This episode was
recorded live in Montreal at our 2024 UGM.
