Welcome to the Romiti Lab
The Romiti Lab is a synthetic organic group at the in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at The University of Texas at Dallas. We are pursuing the total synthesis of complex bioactive molecules through the development of innovative synthesis strategies and high-impact catalytic transformations. While seeking to solve important problems in chemistry, our group is committed to fostering a collaborative and inclusive environment. We acknowledge and embrace diversity in background, race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, socioeconomic status, age, physical ability, marital and family status, and more.
