Drug discovery program leader. Designed, developed and implemented several cell based assays with multiple readouts for preclinical characterization of small molecule compounds targeting cellular enzymes to help identify and advance compounds to development candidate nomination. Designed, coordinated and conducted in vitro and in vivo studies at various.

Developed and validated cell based assays for target identification and validation and for performing High Throughput Screens (HTS) using a variety of readouts to discover small molecule drugs targeting ion channels, transporters, enzymes and GPCRs. Represented biology function in several discovery program teams and helped advance small molecules from hit.

Cardiac ion channel safety profiling and drug discovery using conventional and automated patch clamp and fluorescence based electrophysiological platforms. Small molecule drug discovery, target identification and validation.

Cleveland/Akron, Ohio Area

Designed and supervised the conduct of preclinical cardiac safety pharmacology profiling studies in a GLP environment. Techniques frequently used include:- Whole cell voltage and current clamp of cardiomyocytes, hERG or Nav1.5 expressing cells.- Automated electrophysiology platforms such as QPatch, PatchXpress and IonWorks Quattro.- Cardiac action.

Columbus, Ohio Area

Biochemical and electrophysiological characterization of a newly discovered two pore domain potassium channel including identification of novel agonists and antagonists using conventional patch clamp methods. Elucidated the role of this channel in hormone release and its interplay with other ion channels in modulating stress responses.

Phd, Pharmacology
