Scientist and Precisioneer

Precision BioSciences, Inc., a biotechnology company, engages in developing and commercializing therapeutics and services based on genomic molecular biology.

Robert Brown is an optimistic, energetic, goal-oriented, self-starter currently in a postdoctoral fellowship at the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) in Research Triangle Park NC. His current projects involve leadership, collaboration, and efficient communication with cross-disciplinary teams from a variety of scientific & non-scientific disciplines to study the molecular pathogenesis of ophthalmic diseases including: primary open angle glaucoma (POAG), primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG), and anterior segment disease (ASD). His Ph.D. in pharmaceutical sciences drug discovery/development compliments his current studies in that the novel tools that he has developed to study glaucoma: in-vivo animal models, engineered cell lines, and biochemical assays, can be used to accelerate the drug discovery pipeline and promote innovative discoveries to find a cure for glaucoma. - Skilled in use and interpretation of modern and traditional biochemical, molecular, and pharmacological methods to provide creative solutions for addressing mechanistic challenges in drug discovery and development. - Experienced in design and evaluation of high/mid/low-throughput drug screening for mechanism of action and disposition in models of disease. - Accomplished college-level instructor for Chemistry, Biology, Allied Health, and Biotechnology in traditional lecture based, web-based, and on-line hybrid class settings
