About

I design molecules that fight cancer and I prove they work. As a PhD researcher in Biotechnology, I specialise in the discovery and biological validation of small-molecule therapeutics targeting EGFR and topoisomerase I/II enzymes implicated in hepatocellular carcinoma. My work sits at the intersection of medicinal chemistry, computational modelling, and cellular biology. I synthesise novel indole- and quinoline-based compounds, run molecular docking and dynamics simulations on Schrödinger, and validate hits through CV cytotoxicity assays on Hep3B, HepG2, HCT116, and HUH7 cell lines, all under one research umbrella. What I bring to a research team: ✦ 11 peer-reviewed publications in Elsevier, Wiley, Springer & RSC journals ✦ End-to-end drug discovery experience, from synthesis to ADMET profiling to in-vitro validation ✦ 1 granted copyright and a First Prize at an International Biosciences Conference (2025) ✦ Hands-on expertise in network pharmacology, molecular dynamics, and mechanistic cytotoxicity studies ✦ Experience supporting grant writing, student training, and lab management I'm actively seeking Research Scientist roles in life sciences, pharma R&D, or biotech, where I can contribute to translational drug discovery programmes from day one.
