Episode 66: Dr. Neil Garg on Reimagining Organic Chemistry
Monday, 9 March, 2026
Organic chemistry has a reputation for being one of the most challenging college courses—but what if it could also be interactive, accessible, and even fun? On this exciting episode of Let’s Talk Chemistry edited by Jasmine Winter, hosts Jasmine Winter and Elizabeth Li share the story of Dr. Neil Garg, Professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the University of California, Los Angeles. Dr. Garg discusses his journey from discovering his passion for organic chemistry as an undergraduate to earning his PhD at Caltech and building a career that bridges both research and education. Dr. Garg’s career is built on challenging the status quo, from breaking a 100 year-old rule in chemistry known as Bredt’s rule, to developing innovative tools to help students better visualize and understand molecular structures. Dr. Garg emphasizes teamwork, intellectual curiosity, and making science approachable for learners of all ages. We hope you enjoy!
