Experienced Biotech consultant and researcher with over 7 years of experience in strategy formulation, implementation and innovation management. Biotechnology expert with an emphasis on drug discovery innovation. Efficiently managed and supervised 5 research projects in collaborations with academia and pharmaceuticals at all levels. EDHEC Global MBA candidate (Entrepreneurship, Innovation management track) graduated in May 2019. Actively looking to transition into business development and program/product manager positions with leadership responsibilities.As a biochemist and biophysicist, I have been working in various multinational and multicultural teams to develop novel drugs to treat various diseases to impact human well-being. As a graduate student @ ICGEB, a United Nations Institute, I worked on the proteins involved in Muscular dystrophy and ALS (unfortunately the disease which stifled Stephan Hawkings). My later works on RNA misregulation, which causes cancer, @ Max Planck Institute for Developmental biology and on G-protein coupled receptors @ CNRS in collaboration with Actelion Pharmaceutical Ltd. motivated me to work on the translational aspects of novel drug discovery. My intermittent year as a freelance Biotech consultant provided the impetus to my desire to work at a management level to have a larger impact. MBA @ EDHEC was a natural step for me to acquire the knowledge and to follow the philosophy of constant learning.I am a technophile with interest in Python3 Programming and well versed in Microsoft suite and play Excel well.
