Mr. Raymond K. Twumasi

Raymond Twumasi is a rising fifth year PhD candidate and an NSF GRFP Fellow in the Nagib lab. His organic chemistry journey started at College of Saint Benedict and Saint John's University where he worked on the synthesis of aromatic azo inhibitors of low molecular weight PTPs. He received a few awards and was named a Glen Arth Scholar. Now, as a graduate student at The Ohio State University, his research focuses on developing new strategies for site-selective C-H functionalization via chaperones, or radical precursors.
