PhD Scientist | Analytical Chemistry and Scientific Project Coordination

• Led doctoral research on the “Synthesis and Activation of Heteroatom-Substituted Four-Membered
• Carbocycles” supervised by Prof. Dr. Jerome Waser, managing multiple parallel projects from
• experimental design to analytical interpretation and technical reporting.
• Maintained rigorous electronic laboratory records (ELN), ensuring complete traceability, data
• integrity, reproducibility, and compliance with laboratory documentation practices.
• Authored seven first-author peer-reviewed publications and communicated research findings through
• reports, presentations, and international conferences.
• Performed critical review of experimental data and scientific literature to support investigations,
• decision-making, and continuous improvement of experimental approaches.
• Investigated unexpected experimental outcomes through systematic root cause analysis, critical data
• review, and structured troubleshooting to identify reliable corrective actions.
• Ensured robustness and reproducibility of experimental procedures through systematic
• documentation, method optimization, and verification of experimental results.
• Supervised three Master students (1-5 months each), training them in experimental practices, data
• integrity, and documentation standards.

C• Worked as Research Scholar in the Center for the Development of Therapeutics under the supervision of Dr. Brian Chamberlain, within a multidisciplinary small-molecule drug discovery team.

• Conducted medicinal chemistry optimization, designed and carried out multiple synthetic routes and
• structure-activity studies, across two projects, contributing to the development of a glucose-dependent
• insulin secretagogue candidate for type 2 diabetes and supporting its advancement to the next project
• stage.
• Prepared detailed technical documentation, electronic laboratory records, and patent-supporting
• documentation while ensuring accuracy, traceability, and data quality.
