Hendrik Luesch, Ph.D.

Associate Professor of Medicinal Chemistry
College of Pharmacy

Luesch, an assistant professor of medicinal chemistry in the UF College of Pharmacy and director of the Marine Natural Products Laboratory, collects cyanobacteria from coral reefs around the globe to study the unique toxins they produce.
