I started at Genentech in 2009 after a PhD in organic chemistry at Stanford. At Genentech I primarily work on antibody-drug conjugates for the treatment of cancer and infectious disease.

Postdoctoral Mentor

Genentech is a fantastic place to do translational research. We work in a highly collaborative environment with unparalleled resources and an emphasis on innovation. This enables post docs and their mentors to engage in addressing some of the most difficult scientific problems.

Featured Publication

Targeted drug delivery through the traceless release of tertiary and heteroaryl amines from antibody-drug conjugates.
