• Biography

  Ross Weatherman is currently an assistant professor in the Department of Medicinal Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology at Purdue University in West Lafayette. He received his undergraduate degree from Wabash College, majoring in chemistry. After graduating from Wabash, he obtained his Ph.D. in organic chemistry from University of Wisconsin at Madison where he worked on protein-neoglycopolymer interactions. He then took a postdoctoral position sponsored by the California Division of the American Cancer Society at University of California-San Francisco. At UCSF, he started his current research into studying the mechanisms of action of selective estrogen receptor modulators and designing new drugs for the treatment and prevention of breast cancer. His current research interests include the use of steroid hormone drugs conjugates to nanoscale vectors to investigate novel molecular modes of action and possible therapeutic applications in different types of cancer.
