"We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop."
I am a translational scientist working at the interface of immunology, biologics discovery, and cell & gene therapy for oncology and autoimmune diseases. My work spans the journey from early binder and construct design through in-depth preclinical evaluation and manufacturing readiness, with particular expertise in CAR T-cell programmes.
I design and implement experimental strategies to generate, refine, and prioritise therapeutic candidates, combining computational insight with high-content laboratory validation. I am particularly interested in integrating AI/ML-driven design into my research to inform construct architecture, improve candidate selection, and make each experimental cycle more purposeful. Over the past eight years, I have progressed programmes from initial concept to stages aligned with clinical translation, collaborating closely with multidisciplinary teams and external partners to turn complex data into clear development decisions.
I am motivated by environments where scientific depth, innovation, and real-world impact intersect, and I bring a pragmatic, delivery-focused mindset to advancing next-generation immunotherapies.
