Trained in neuroscience and stem cell biology, I have 8 years of drug discovery experience with expertise in assay development, small molecule and functional genomics high throughput screening, and automation. From target identification to lead generation and optimization, I led and worked in cross-functional teams to enable projects and transition assets along the pipeline in Neuroscience, Immunology and Oncology. I am experienced in building and managing teams for target discovery and validation using novel in vitro models of neurodegenerative diseases.
