Professional Experience: •Scientific and strategic leadership in drug discovery, and pre-clinical, clinical and product development, spanning nearly three decades•Discovery and development of biotherapeutics and vaccines as well as small molecule drugs targeted against genomics derived proteins in bacterial, viral and oncology disease areas•Strong track record of developing analytical and biophysical characterization methods that led to delivery of biologics and vaccines into clinical trials•Regulatory CMC submissions and approvals •Leadership in research and development of formulation, adjuvants and delivery systems. Examples: stabilizing formulation of Gardasil (first approved HPV vaccine); safe, stable and efficacious formulations for several candidate therapeutics delivered to Phase I and II trials.•Built and led biochemistry, protein science, bioanalytics, protein formulation, biophysics and structural biology departments within pharmaceutical industry, aimed at characterizing structure, folding and function for both therapeutic and target proteins. •Leadership in cross-functional, inter-organizational and international collaborations•Academic teaching and research experience including building an NIH and NSF grant-funded biophysics program•Scientific and advisory contributions to Neglected Diseases, especially tuberculosisGoals:To dedicate discovery and development experience in biologics, vaccines and small molecule drugs to prevention and cure of diseases, and help mitigate serious threats to human health
