Mitch Croatt, Associate Professor of Chemistry and Department Heard, specializes in the synthesis of medicinally important molecules using as few steps as possible.  To do so, they: 1) design and develop new reactions; 2) use function-oriented synthesis to simplify structures; 3) collaborate with natural products chemists to modify complex natural products; and 4) use late-stage diversification.

In his spare time, Mitch likes to help coach his daughters’ softball team, go camping, and do woodworking.
