About
Jonathan S. Dordick is a pioneering figure in biochemical engineering, whose research bridges synthetic biology, enzyme engineering, and biomaterials. His work has fundamentally advanced the use of enzymes in non-aqueous environments, enabling novel approaches to biocatalysis and combinatorial chemistry. A landmark contribution is his development of regioselective enzymatic acylation for producing solution-phase combinatorial libraries, a method that has garnered over 50 citations and opened new avenues for drug discovery and chemical synthesis. Dordick's impact is profound, with his publications collectively cited thousands of times, reflecting his role in shaping modern biocatalysis. He is also recognized for his leadership as the Vice President for Research at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, where he has fostered interdisciplinary innovation. His achievements include numerous awards, such as the American Chemical Society's Biochemical Technology Division Award, and his work continues to inspire students and researchers exploring the intersection of biology and engineering.
