Asst. Prof. Sirirat Kumarn, Ph.D.
![]() Ext. 1616 Email: sirirat.kum@mahidol.ac.th Field of Research:Organic Chemistry My research interests include the development of new synthetic methods and their application in synthesis of bioactive natural products, particularly in the areas of peptide chemistry and catalysis. In collaboration with Prof. JitladdaSakdapipanich, our focus is also on natural rubber research and studies of non-rubber particles to increase their potential uses and value.
