Short presentation

I’m an organic chemist working at the SciLifeLab Drug Discovery and Development platform (SciLifeLab DDD) in a team of chemists and biologists. The aim of the platform is to start from academic discoveries and work together with Swedish PI’s to progress drug development projects towards a pre-clinical proof-of-concept. My role is to design and synthesize novel drug candidates in the Hit2Lead – Lead ID phases.

Research Scientist, SciLifeLab Drug Discovery and Development platform (DDD)
The aim of the SciLifeLab DDD platform is to start from academic discoveries and work together with Swedish PI’s to develop small molecule and antibody leads towards a pre-clinical proof-of-concept.
The SciLifeLab DDD team consists of chemists and biologists with expertise within e.g. drug design, ADME, toxicology, biochemical and cellular screening, protein expression and crystallization, in-vitro and system pharmacology.
My role is to design and synthesize novel drug candidates in the Hit2Lead – Lead ID phases.
