• Worked as part of a multidisciplinary team on the process development and optimisation of the route to a drug molecule intermediate. • Operated autonomously, conducting laboratory experimentation and running and performing analysis of my reactions and products using a range of instrumental techniques.• Honed my ability to gather and analyse complex datasets, interpreting trends across multiple laboratory reaction screens.• Communicated confidently and effectively, presenting my work at monthly technical meetings, summarising the results of large numbers of reactions using headline figures and tables to better convey key outcomes and remedial actions.• Shared my findings and explored potential causes of a failed reaction at a departmental problem-solving meeting. Building on colleague’s ideas, I subsequently successfully implemented their recommended changes for an alternative synthetic pathway. • Undertook extensive research and drew on relevant academic literature to apply to my lab work.• Collaborated with colleagues from a wide-range of disciplines and departments to develop a bespoke purification method for my product.
