About me
- Staff Scientist at Chemical Biology Consortium Sweden (CBCS-KI)
My role at CBCS-KI is to help other researchers to develop high throughput
screening assays for their projects. After obtaining a PhD in Pharmaceutical
Sciences from the University of Georgia, I became a postdoctoral researcher
in the Department of Pharmacology and Chemical Biology at Emory University in
Atlanta, Georgia, USA.
Ph.D. in Pharmaceutical Sciences from The University of Georgia, Athens,

Research
- My PhD research was mainly in identifying small molecule inhibitors for
Protein Methyltransferases in epigenetic regulation. During my postdoctoral
research, I was focused on high throughput screening and discovery of
chemical disruptors for protein-protein interactions of novel protein targets
in cancer and Alzheimer’s Disease.
