WORK / RESEARCH EXPERIENCES
CSBIO, Milpitas, CA Apr 2023-Present
Chemist- Manufacturing cGMP
Peptide synthesis with Synthesizers (Solid phase peptide synthesis)
Purification with Preparative HPLC
Documentations
ThermoFisher Scientific, Fremont, CA January 2019 – Apr 2023
Staff Scientist-Bioconjugation / Synthetic Organic Chemistry
As part of NPD (New product Development) (Toxicology) group, I Design and synthesize Haptens that I purify by HPLC or ISCO and conjugate them to BSA, KLH, ED28 to make immunogens for anti-body discovery and production.
I perform equipments (HPLC, Lyophilizer, LCMS) maintenance and troubleshooting
I am the DEA’s coordinator for controlled substance (handling and disposal)
As part of manufacturing support team, I synthesize haptens and conjugate them to BSA, Enzymes, etc… and transfer them to Manufacturing-Operation in cGMP environment.
I do Documentation: BOMs (Bill of materials), SOPs; MPIs (Manufacturing Process Instruction) and batch records as Manufacturing supporting documents.
I maintain Chemicals and Haptens Inventory
