"I aim to deliver the right dose to the right patient by applying modeling and simulation approaches"

12

Years at Genentech

37

Publications

I joined Genentech in March of 2009 after 2 years of work at Roche Palo Alto preclinical modeling and simulation group. Since joining Genentech, I have worked on both clinical pharmacology and modeling & simulation aspects to support drug development, mainly in the field of monoclonal antibodies and antibody drug conjugates for cancer treatment.
