Professional Interests

At William Paterson University, Dr. Satam research group is focus on Green approach synthesis molecules. The research focuses on developing sustainable approaches or modern synthetic tools such as electrochemistry and photochemistry to provide unique access to different scaffolds of bioactive molecules. The group plans to use these methods to prepare natural products for the medicinal chemistry and SAR studies.

Other Interests

Apart from my focus on research, I have a strong passion for sports and outdoor activities. I enjoy playing cricket, soccer, badminton, and chess. Additionally, I love hiking, which allows me to explore nature, disconnect from daily routines, and enjoy the tranquility of the outdoors. Apart from that I also experiment on my cooking skills.
