Rhiju Das (born 1978 in Houston, Texas{{citation needed|date=September 2012}}) is a computational biochemist and an associate professor of biochemistry and physics at Stanford University.

Research in his lab seeks a predictive understanding of how RNA molecules and their complexes form molecular machines fundamental to life.[1]

Education

Das was trained as a physicist before switching to biochemistry. His undergraduate education was at Harvard, in physics, followed by master's research as a Marshall scholar at Cambridge University and University College London in experimental cosmology and molecular phylogenetics. He completed his Ph.D. in physics at Stanford University, supervised by Sebastian Doniach and Daniel Herschlag.

Career

Das was a Damon Runyon postdoctoral fellow working on protein structure prediction with David Baker at the University of Washington.[2] He joined Stanford’s Biochemistry department in 2009 and was promoted with tenure in 2016.

Research

Das develops methods to simulate and computationally design RNA molecules as well as experimental methods to infer RNA structure from multidimensional chemical mapping measurements.[3] Integrating these efforts, Das directs the EteRNA massive open laboratory, which integrates an internet-scale videogame with massively parallel experimental and machine learning.[4] The project aims to empower citizen scientists to invent medicine.[5]
