Today is
I am a creative IT professional with a background in experimental science. In the course of these two careers I have lived and worked in the UK, in France, and in the USA. I have twenty years experience of Information Technology leadership in Pharmaceutical Research & Development (R&D).
In the last three years, working for a leading international pharmaceutical company, I have:
- led the investigation into Cloud Computing for R&D
- chaired the Cross Pharma HPC group - an industry forum for sharing non-proprietary information and best practices for High Performance Computing (HPC) in the Life Sciences
- pioneered Agile methodologies for project management in R&D
- developed the first website based on Microsoft SharePoint for collaboration in R&D
My early career in crystallography is illustrated under Science, where you will find my list of publications. There, the structures link will take you to three-dimensional visualizations of some of the molecular structures I worked on. The real-time visualization and animation is possible thanks to the excellent
applet and its scripting capabilities. The animated site logo is the ferritin molecule on which I did my post-doctoral work.
