Pradip K. Mascharak was born in Jaipur, India, in 1953. He received his Ph.D. from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur, in 1979. In the same year, he joined the research group of Professor Richard Holm at Stanford University and later moved to Harvard University. He later worked with Professor Steve Lippard at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for two years before joining the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC), in late 1984. He is currently a Professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry at UCSC. Modeling the active sites of metalloenzymes, design of complexes that exhibit oxygenase activity in the presence of peroxides and dioxygen, and syntheses of photoactive NO donors are the major focus of his research.
