Overview:
In my current role as Research Professor and Associate Director of ITR, I am responsible for the planning, execution, and coordination of several ongoing research projects related to our internal and external collaborations. From a broader perspective, I have contributed in major ways to ITR’s drug discovery workflows. The most recent areas of my focus are HTS of natural products libraries, the identification of new drug leads from chemical classes with new modes of action, as well as the development of new drug candidates.
Research Interests:
Mycobacteriology including molecular biology, recombinant vaccine development, proteomic analysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, high throughput screening (HTS), drug target identification, and in vitro assay development.
