About Jeanne de Long

With over 30 years of experience in Quality for both early and late-phase pharmaceutical companies, my career began in Quality Control Biochemistry laboratories. I managed the IS Support team for lab instruments and later supervised the Equipment Management team for Quality labs.After taking an early retirement in the Fall of 2007, I established a consulting business focused on providing Quality support to the Biotech industry. Over the next 17 years, I worked with a diverse range of clients, including established European companies entering the US market and start-up virtual companies filing applications and initiating Phase 1 trials. Recently, I accepted a full-time position at Vaxcyte, where I oversee quality activities related to method validation, release testing, and stability programs for Drug Substance, Drug Product, Intermediates, and Critical Raw Materials.
