Evan Trivedi

Evan Trivedi serves as Associate Professor and Department Chair of the Department of Chemistry within the College of Arts and Sciences at Oakland University, Rochester, Michigan.

His academic background includes:

• Ph.D. in Inorganic Chemistry from Northwestern University (2011)
• B.S. in Chemistry from Purdue University (2005)

Dr. Trivedi's research program focuses on synthetic inorganic chemistry centered on light-activated molecules. The Trivedi Lab draws inspiration from natural pigments like chlorophyll to design synthetic targets for applications in molecular imaging, medicinal therapeutics, optical device development, and catalysis. Key research areas include photophysical property analysis, biocompatibility assessment, and reactivity studies of photoactive compounds, with emphasis on fluorescent probes and reactive oxygen species generation.
