Waltham, Massachusetts, United States

• Tasked to scale up current commercial process to a size seven pharmaceutical spray dryer (PSD-7)• Designed a study that will be used to generate points for a design of experiments (DOE) on the PSD-7

Waltham, Massachusetts, United States

• Developed and optimized mRNA powder with suitable aerosol and physical properties to be delivered via inhalation• Characterized powder using thermal gravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, x-ray powder diffraction, geometric particle size distribution, and aerosol particle size distribution• Lead author on pending patent for work on the mRNA powder• Set up a PSD-1 for use in research and development• Tasked to scale up current commercial process to a PSD-5 operated by a CMO • Performed a hazard and operability study and a failure mode and effects analysis for the PSD-5• Designed and ran a DOE on the PSD-5 in order to generate a proven acceptable range for the PSD-5• Helped design a DOE for a new packaging line

Lexington, Ma

• Performed solubility testing to determine the optimal solvent composition for a crystallization pathway• Designed a distillative and temperature dependent crystallization pathway to increase the yield and purity of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API)• Characterized the crystallized API for purity and yield using thermal gravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, liquid chromatography, quantitative NMR, microscopy, and x-ray powder diffraction • Tested different chemical pathways to synthesize a new API

Billerica, Ma

• Analyzed field data to discover the source of widespread system failures in a fuel cell engine, PowerEdge, and took part in meetings to determine solutions for the error• Tested a new orifice for the PowerEdge system to resolve system failures• Performed quality control on PowerEdge systems and resolved build errors when they appeared• Tested new software builds for the PowerEdge system

Watertown, Ma

• Synthesized polymeric synthetic vaccine nanoparticles (SVPs) by sonication, high pressure homogenization, and nanoprecipitation• Designed formulations for SVPs to create second generation tolerogenic nanoparticles• Characterized SVPs by size and gravimetric yield• Prepared animal studies to test the efficacy of SVPs in mice and non-human primates
