About meI am a
medicinal chemist with a PhD in
organic chemistry. I have worked in both academic and industrial settings doing teaching, basic research and applied research mostly in the area of
drug discovery.
I currently work for a small company that collaborates with academic labs to pursue drug discovery research and to help them secure funding, such as
SBIR grants, that would be otherwise unavailable to them.
I have been actively editing Wikipedia for more than ten years. I try to improve Wikipedia by creating, updating, correcting, organizing, and copyediting articles related to organic chemistry, particularly
heterocyclic compounds and natural
organic compounds. To get a better idea of my interests, just take a look at some of the
articles I have started or this
list of the most recent of the ~8000 chemical structure images I have uploaded, or see my
contributions.
With my wife and kids, I live in suburban
Pennsylvania.
