ABOUT LUKE ALDERWICK
I am a life sciences people leader with 15 years experience of driving early-stage drug discovery projects, from target identification through to hit-finding and beyond. Currently leading multiple projects at Charles River Laboratories, I bring together multidisciplinary expertise — biochemical, biophysical, biological, structural, and multi-omics data—and integrate these with advanced AI/ML insights to accelerate drug discovery projects and de-risk drug candidate pipelines.I thrive at the intersection of science, strategy, and leadership: building collaborative global partnerships, mentoring the next generation of scientists, and designing tailored strategies that optimize outcomes for pharmaceutical, biotech, and academic partners. My background as an Associate Professor, Director of an academic Drug Discovery Facility and Senior Group Leader at a Premier Global Drug Discovery CRO, has given me a unique perspective—bridging academic innovation with industry application to deliver breakthrough results.Previous positions held: Director of the Birmingham Drug Discovery Facility
