Planet Pharma Millburn, NJ,
  • Works closely with production team to deliver new products and processes in line with Sigma Aldrich products and in accordance with company compliant standards such as ISO9000:2000 and ISO13485 Supports customer accounts by ensuring their products are within defined specification Assists in transfer of newly or improved processes to all Sigma Aldrich sites globally Manages process improvement projects aimed at improving the quality and safety of manufacturing processes.
  • This includes utilizing AtTask (on-line process management software), Lean Six Sigma tools and methodology to deliver the projects upon agreed deadlines Process development, and validation in accordance with the required quality management standards Troubleshoots manufacturing issues related to processes or chemistry and/or customer complaints Documents all research on laboratory notebooks using good documentation practices Safety Safety auditor at Sigma Custom Products Utilizes Failure Mode and Effect Analysis while designing projects Technical Training Actively mentors, trains and supervise production team for several months to improve their research and analytical skills, laboratory safety and professional skills in relation to newly developed process Writing Generates technical notes, white papers, workflows and other documents to support marketing and sales activities Author SOP documents for implementation, operation and maintenance of advanced technical equipment and instruments.
Research Scientist, 12/2010 - 08/2012
Amazon Rhodes, IA,
  • Product Development Worked closely with peptide and antibody core laboratory to support the manufacturing processes and ensure uninterrupted running on the laboratory.
  • Designed and synthesized potent Quillaja Saponin vaccine adjuvants.
  • The compounds required structural modification of natural product (Quillaja Saponin -21).
  • Developed new chemistry applications for peptide synthesis and antigen development Designed and synthesized potent Quillaja Saponin vaccine adjuvants.
  • The compounds required structural modification of natural product (Quillaja Saponin -21) Utilized various chemical reactions to conjugated lipids and non-natural oligosaccharide to QS-21 Formulated the QS-21 compounds for preclinical testing.
Graduate Research Assistant, 08/2007 - 11/2010
Association Of American Medical Colleges Washington, DC, United States
  • Under advisor supervision, worked to set up new laboratory, install and maintain laboratory instruments such as HPLC, ABI 433 peptide microwave, freeze dryers, UV-Vis spectrometer.
  • Developed and synthesized cyclic glucagon-like peptide-1 and Exendin-4 peptides with constrained conformation.
  • In collaboration with UT Southwestern Medical Center and NIH we design the most highly constrained peptides ever reported with potential in type II diabetes therapy and noninvasive imaging of pancreatic beta mass and insulinoma.
  • Notable Contributions: Authored and co-authored three manuscripts related to GLP-1 peptides for publication in peer reviewed journals Presented scholarly abstracts and scientific talks in national and regional scientific meetings Supervised and trained over 20 baccalaureate and junior graduate students in their independent research Determined receptor efficacy of GLP-1 mimetics using gene reporter assay Maintained laboratory safety standards, chemical inventories and accurately calibrating equipments Conducted in vitro ADME assay and enzyme stability tests on cyclic GLP-1 peptides Data analysis and presentation using software such as Graph Pad Prism.
