Rushi joined the Life Sciences team at Reddie & Grose in 2024, with experience in Systems, Structural and Synthetic Biology. He joined with a Bachelor’s and Master’s Degrees from the University of Cambridge.
During his bachelor’s degree, Rushi utilised computational models to study the structural effects of drug-resistance associated mutations within the M. tuberculosis proteome – research that led to a published paper.
For his master’s thesis, Rushi focused on the development of enzymatic biopolymer synthesis, but also conducted research into the origins of life. Along the way, he gained hands-on experience in crystallography and cryo-EM techniques, ultimately constructing a structural model for an XNA-polymerase enzyme.
Outside of work, Rushi is passionate about music and plays both the guitar and drums. He is also enthusiastic about fitness and boxing. Prior to joining Reddie & Grose, he spent a month volunteering at an elephant rehabilitation sanctuary in Sri Lanka, contributing to the care and recovery of domesticated elephants.
