Scientific Investigator
GSK, United Kingdom
Richard is a Scientific Investigator in Imaging and Associate Fellow at GSK Stevenage UK, where he leads imaging and advanced analytic capabilities for the development of small molecule high-content imaging screens. He obtained his PhD in Immunology and Cell Biology at the University of York in 2014, going on to work as a Senior Applications Scientist at Phasefocus to explore the use of phase measurements derived from a novel label-free imaging technology. In 2018, he joined GSK and has developed numerous high-content assays across the drug discovery portfolio, focusing particularly on imaging assays that are now embedded within routine early safety screening. He has initiated application of AI/ML techniques across target identification and hit confirmation imaging programs and pursues further advancement of internal resources in the field with AI specialists. Richard provides training in imaging, analysis, and assay design to GSK scientists and champions inter-sector mobility through academic collaborations.
