DESCRIPTION:The chemical synthesis of natural products provides an exciting
  platform from which to conduct fundamental research in chemistry and biol
 ogy. Our group is currently pursuing the synthesis of a number of structur
 ally complex natural products\, including the diterpenoids ryanodine\, tal
 atisamine\, and pleuromutilin. The densely-packed arrays of heteroatoms an
 d stereogenic centers that constitute these polycyclic targets challenge t
 he limits of current technology and inspire the development of new synthet
 ic strategies and tactics. This seminar will describe the latest progress 
 in our methodological and target-directed synthesis endeavors.\n\nBio: Sar
 ah E. Reisman earned a BA in Chemistry from Connecticut College in New Lon
 don\, CT\, where she became interested in organic synthesis working in the
  laboratory of Prof. Timo Ovaska. In 2006\, Sarah earned her Ph.D. in chem
 istry from Yale University\, conducting research with Prof. John L. Wood i
 n the area of natural product total synthesis. As an NIH post-doctoral fel
 low\, Sarah pursued studies in the field of asymmetric catalysis working w
 ith Prof. Eric Jacobsen at Harvard University. In 2008\, Sarah joined the 
 faculty at the California Institute of Technology where she is now a Profe
 ssor of Chemistry and a Heritage Principal Investigator. Her laboratory se
 eks to discover\, develop\, and study new chemical reactions within the co
 ntext of natural product total synthesis. Prof. Reisman has been recognize
 d with a number of awards for teaching and research\, including an Alfred 
 P. Sloan Research Fellowship\, Arthur C. Cope Scholar Award\, the Amgen Yo
 ung Investigator Award\, the Novartis Early Career Award\, and the Bristol
 -Myers Squibb Unrestricted Grant in Synthetic Organic Chemistry.\n
