About Soroush Ardekani
Scientist and CMC leader with 9+ years of experience advancing complex drug delivery, gene therapy, and small‑molecule programs from early research through IND-enabling studies and regulatory submissions. I bring a strong track record in program and project management, cross-functional leadership, and outsourced development oversight, with expertise spanning formulation and process development, nonclinical strategy, analytical method development, and technical transfers. My work has supported multiple pipeline assets, contributed to orange book–listed patents, and driven integration of new technologies across R&D. Known for navigating fast-paced, collaborative environments, I combine scientific depth with strategic execution to accelerate development and deliver high‑impact results.I am always eager to learn new skills and technologies, and to connect with fellow professionals in the field. If you would like to get in touch, feel free to reach out to me!
