WORK HISTORY
Scientific Communications Specialist @SRI
I specialize in translating complex biological and computational research into clear, compelling communications that support discovery, data interpretation, and scientific collaboration. With a background in chemistry, bioinformatics, and research commercialization, I help bridge the gap between innovative tools like BioCyc and Pathway Tools, and the researchers who use them.My experience spans drug development, metagenomics, synthetic biology and systems biology, and I’ve led science-driven marketing, strategic outreach, and research translation efforts across biotech and tech-enabled platforms. I excel at crafting messages and materials that resonate with technical audiences, from grant reviewers and PIs to biotech decision-makers and cross-disciplinary teams.
EDUCATION

SKILLS
ABOUT DYLAN BEESLEY
I am an experienced marketing and communications leader in cutting-edge scientific industries. I have expertise in navigating heavily regulated markets, focusing on key growth targets and partnerships to bring nascent products to new regions. Having previously managed a preclinical-stage drug development start-up, I have experience in communicating the need and importance for new avenues of research with a focus on actionable outcomes. I have a background in nanomaterials chemistry, and have developed a nanoparticle-based tailings remediation method through the University of Calgary. At Koonkie, I am working to build a sustainable base of high-value long-term clients who are interested in harnessing microbial solutions to optimize their operational outputs. As Koonkie looks to provide guidance around emerging capabilities to manage highly complex DNA based datasets, I am also focused on education and building evidence supporting the usage of this data in key applications. I have a B.Sc. in Chemistry (minor in nanotechnology) from the University of Calgary. I have experience with two nanomaterials research labs; developing a novel magnetic filtration method and characterizing liposomal drug-delivery systems.
