Senior Research Scientist

Dr Su Jerwood: Senior Research Scientist Molecular Pharmacology and Automation Team, Exscientia plc.
I am a senior scientist at Exscientia, an AI-driven pharmatech company committed to discovering, designing and developing the best possible drugs in the fastest and most effective manner. My role is in the molecular pharmacology team where I specialise in automated and computer-aided biochemical assay development.
Prior to my industry experience, I spent ten years at the University of Oxford first as a Marie Curie Fellow, then Junior Research Fellow at Sommerville College and later a Post-Doctoral Research Associate in the field of Chemical Biology. I specialised in Bionanotechnology, specifically in the development of nanorobots which will be utilised in advancing next generation DNA sequencing. Additionally, I focused on understanding polymerisation reactions to generate the polymers for targeted drug delivery.
Before my post-doctoral experience, I pursued a Bioinorganic Chemistry Ph.D at Boston University where I studied the structure function relationship of enzymes found in the bacterial defence system.
