Drawing on over 30 years of experience in antibacterial drug discovery within both the large Pharma and biotech sector, I offer independent advice and expertise to SMEs, biotechs and academic institutions. My background is in project leadership and medicinal chemistry team leadership from hit-to-lead and lead optimisation stages through to candidate selection.

My publications cover the design, synthesis and SAR of a variety of antibacterial classes including carbapenems, pleuromutilins, tRNA synthetase inhibitors, topoisomerase inhibitors and polymyxins. I have also presented at recent antibacterial and medicinal chemistry meetings.

• Strategic approaches and directions within antibacterial drug discovery programmes
• Medicinal chemistry from hit identification through to candidate selection, with a particular focus on the requirements of antibacterial agents
• Review and evaluation of research programmes as an independent expert
