Brief Bio

Chris Leonard, Ph.D.

I'm currently Director of Translational Research and Technology at a small pharmaceutical research and development firm working on disorders of the central nervous system, which is a roundabout way of saying I run an IT shop with some interesting scientific computing requirements and do other things that need to get done (e.g. design and run clinical trials, etc.).

I've got a strong background in clinical microbiology - formerly a licensed clin micro lab tech and 5 years of teaching the same to medical students at Cornell Med during my Ph.D. program. My research interests have included the molecular biology of viral DNA replication (Ph.D.), molecular oncology (post-doc at Johns Hopkins) and bioinformatics studies of the evolution of cell-cycle control mechanisms (GenBank Fellow, NCBI/NLM/NIH). Of particular relevance in this context, I'm an expert hunter-gatherer and synthesizer of biomedical information.
