Amit R. Reddi
Dr. Amit Reddi is a Professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the Georgia Institute of Technology. His research is focused on the cell biology and biochemistry of metals. As ~50% of all proteins require a metal for function, virtually every metabolic and signaling pathway of consequence to human health and disease is metal dependent. Dr. Reddi seeks to determine how metalloproteins acquire metals and communicate with other biomolecules to regulate physiology. Reddi earned his B.A. in Chemistry at Carleton College in 2003, Ph.D. in Bioinorganic/Biophysical Chemistry from Columbia University in 2008, completed post-doctoral training in Cell Biology/Genetics at Johns Hopkins University in 2013, and started as an Assistant Professor at Georgia Tech in 2013. Reddi has taught biochemistry and bioinorganic chemistry to undergraduate and graduate students, published > 40 manuscripts in fields spanning genetics, cell biology, biochemistry, and inorganic chemistry, and has been supported by the NIH and NSF over the years.
