Admin History: Chaitan Khosla is the Wells H. Rauser and Harold M. Petiprin Professor of Chemical Engineering and Chemistry at Stanford University. He took B.Tech in Chemical Engineering, Bombay, 1985; Ph.D. from the California Institute of Technology, 1990 with Jay Bailey working on the expression of the Vitreoscilla Hemoglobin gene. He did his postdoctoral work at the John Innes Centre with David Hopwood. He has been a professor at Stanford since 1992. His research is focused on two realms, the first are to build a molecular understanding of polyketide synthases and the second is focused on the biochemistry of coeliac disease particularly involving tissue transglutaminase.
