“During my first few months in the graduate program at the University of Kentucky College of Pharmacy, I worked with Huy designing novel compounds for periodontal diseases. Huy was a great resource for determining which scaffolds were synthetically feasible, and why certain compounds were unwanted due to pharmacological properties. Huy is extremely personable, and very motivated on every project he is assigned to. He is also driven to help others in their research, using his expertise in organic chemistry to show others optimized pathways or techniques that can improve their work. Huy has been not only an indispensable resource during my time here at UK, but also a fantastic colleague. ”
