Personal Introduction:  

Dr. Hung-wen Liu is the George Hitchings Regent Chair in Drug Design, and is a Professor in the Medicinal Chemistry Division of the College of Pharmacy and the Department of Chemistry at the University of Texas, Austin. His research lies at the crossroads of chemistry and biology, and focuses on the elucidation of the chemical mechanisms of enzymes that catalyze mechanistically unusual and physiologically important steps in the biosynthetic pathways of natural products. Over the years, his group has studied many intriguing chemical transformations in a wide variety of natural product classes. He was the recipient of the Horace S. Isbell Award from the American Chemical Society (ACS) Carbohydrate Division (1993), the Nakanishi Prize from the ACS Organic Division (2007), the Repligen Award from the ACS Biological Division (2008), the A. I. Scott Medal (2011), and the Arthur C. Cope Late Career Scholars Award from the ACS (2014). He serves on many review panels and editorial boards. He has been an Associate Editor of Organic Letters since 2004.
