J. N. Moorthy, Born on 1 July 1964 at [[B. Kothakota]], a border town in [[Chittoor district]] of the south Indian state of [[Andhra Pradesh]], graduated in chemistry from [[Bangalore University]] in 1985 and completed his master's degree from the same university in 1988.<ref name="Biodata on IITK">{{Cite web |url=http://home.iitk.ac.in/~moorthy/JNMoorthy_Vitae_Jan-2016.pdf |title=Biodata on IITK |date=2016 |publisher=IIT Kanpur}}</ref> Subsequently, he joined the [[Indian Institute of Science]] from where he secured a Phd in 1994 and went to the US where he pursued his post-doctoral studies under the guidance of [[Jay Kochi]] of the [[University of Houston]]. In 1995, obtaining an [[Alexander von Humboldt Foundation|Alexander von Humboldt fellowship]], he moved to the laboratory of Waldemar Adam at the [[University of Würzburg]] where he stayed for over one year. His next move was to the [[University of Victoria]] in 1996 to work with Cornelia Bohne and he completed his post-doctoral studies there in 1998. He returned to India to join the [[Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur]] in June 1998 as an assistant professor but stayed there only for a few months and moved to the [[Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur]] where he served as an associated professor from December 2003 before becoming a professor of the department of chemistry in 2008. After holding the Lalit M. Kapoor Chair Professorship during 2011–14,<ref name="Lalit M.
