author: K Anand Solomon
description: Dr. K. Anand Solomon, Assistant Professor, Department of Bioinformatics, Sri Ramachandra University, Porur, Chennai, obtained his Masters degree in chemistry from Sri Sathya Sai University, Puttaparthi, Andhra Pradesh (1995), and served as a lecturer in the same department. Then he went on to carry out his research in the Department of Crystallography and Biophysics, University of Madras, Chennai. His teaching was focused on organic chemist r y and related f ields. His research centred on the chemistry of natural products from Meliaceae family and their antifeedant activity against Spodoptera litura, an agricultural pest. This also included structural elucidation of natural products using NMR and X-ray diffraction studies and culminated in modelling and QSAR studies. He has ten international and three national research publications to his credit.
