OBJECTIVE

Lead Scientist with eight (8) years of experience in the pharmaceutical industry working at Contract Research Organizations

(CRO), with experience in activities such as, but not limited to: analytical method development and validation, applied

synthetic organic chemistry, and complete physical-chemical characterization of pharmaceutical products; seeking a scientific

leadership role or related scientific position at a pharmaceutical company.

EXPERIENCE

Ricerca Biosciences LLC (CRO) Concord, Ohio. 07/2010 – Present.

Analytical Chemistry Scientist

Scientist at the Analytical Chemistry Group. Technical proposal writing, planning, setting -up and execution of

experiments, regular technical meetings with clients, data processing, analytical test method wri ting, validation protocol

design/writing, scientific report writing.

Areas of application:

Analytical method development and validation (ICH compliant): Stability-indicating HPLC-UV methods (Assay

o

and Purity), quantitative determination of residuals and impurities in drug substances and drug products by HPLC-

MSMS Multiple Reaction Monitoring (MRM), derivatization Chemistry for analytical purposes (e.g. GC-MS), and

quantitative determination of counterion by IC (DIONEX technology).

Identification, isolation, and characterization of impurities and degradants in pharmaceuticals, involving techniques

o

such as Semi-preparative & Preparative HPLC, HPLC-UV/MSMS, 1D and 2D NMR, FTIR, etc. (e.g. Identification,

isolation, purification, and structural characterization of all major stability-related impurities of Optimer’s

Fidaxomicin)

Qualitative analysis of impurities and residuals by HPLC -MSMS for molecular structure assessment to support

o

process chemistry.

Structural characterization of drug substances and other synthesis intermediates by Mass Spectrometry.

o

Extractable and Leachables (E&L) studies (GC-MS, HPLC-MS)

o

o

Pharmaceutical Sciences Consultant Miami, Florida. 04/2010 – 07/2010.

Consultant

Soon after Bank of America terminated Azopharma operations, some clients approached me, with the intention of

rescuing and securing critical data, experimental results, and samples/materials of interest, part of their ong oing projects.

Because of my personal involvement on each single project, I was successfully able to gather all relevant data, from

NMR to HPLC-MSMS, process the data, collect all samples/materials, and provide the clients with technical/scientific

reports in behalf of Azopharma Contract Pharmaceutical Services Research and Development group.

Azopharma Drug Development Services (CRO) Miramar, Florida. 07/2004 – 04/2010.

Positions held (starting from most recent):

R&D Director; R&D/Synthesis Manager; Structural Chemistry Group Leader; Scientist; Chemist II

Managed all groups in the R&D department, supervising a team of chemists/scientists; including Analytical and

Bioanalytical Method Development, Method Validation under ICH guidelines, Organic Synthesis, Structural Chemistry,

and Characterization.

QC related activities: Raw materials, API, and finish product release; analytical tests as part of ICH stability programs.

R&D related activities: deformulation of pharmaceutical products, synthesis and semi-synthesis of organic compounds

for analytical applications, identification-isolation-characterization-synthesis of impurities/degradants in pharmaceutical

products, among other activities.

Examples of areas of development and scientific applications:

Execution of analytical procedures such as Identification, Assay, Chromatographic Purity, Content Uniformity, and

o

Dissolution, as part of release activities and stability programs under ICH guidelines.

Analytical method development and validation under cGMP environment and ICH guidelines.

o

Design and execution pre-formulation and compatibility studies to support the development of new drug products.

o

Extractables and Leachables studies.

o

Reverse engineering (de-formulation) of various types of pharmaceutical products: cre ams, tablets, gels, etc.
