Life and career edit

Professor Murty received his B.Sc and M.Sc degrees from the Andhra University and his PhD from the Banaras Hindu University in Varanasi, India. He later moved to the Thomas Jefferson University as a research associate and became an instructor at the Sidney Kimmel Cancer Center at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia, United States. During 2003–2012, he was the principal investigator at National Cancer Institute, NIH, Bethesda.[3][4] He was Professor-in-charge (administration) at the IISER Thiruvananthapuram,[5][6] as well as the member of the IISER TVM Senate.[7] He also served on several institute committees.[8][9][10][11] Currently he is Deputy Director of the institute.[12]
