Introduce Yourself

  • 1.  Introduce Yourself

    Posted 12-10-2019 03:01 PM

    Hello! A little about me: I have been with SLAS for over 6 years and transitioned from Admin to Membership because I enjoy working with you all so much. If you've been to the SLAS International Conference, you've probably seen me at the SLAS Booth, or cheering you on during the FUNd Run. I'll be there again this year!

    Fun Fact: My dog's name is Blanche and she is 16 years old. She is the sweetest golden girl!

    Looking forward to hearing from you and learning more about you.

    Thanks Suanne, and hi all! SLAS is an essential part of my life and career going back to the earliest days in 1991 when it was first named ICAR then ALA. I served on the first board from 2003-2006 when the organization transitioned from a founder-driven to a board-governed association. I then served on the board of SBS (Society for Biomolecular Sciences) 2009-2010 and was on the combined board 2010-2013 for the merger of ALA & SBS, forming SLAS. It's a privilege and an honor to be part of the organization for so many years. I count many of you as colleagues and friends.

    Fun Fact: My dog's name is McLovin. He's a four year old Rottweiler/German Shepherd rescue and keeps me hiking with his energy and love of the woods.

    See you in San Diego soon!

    ​Dear Suanne, thanks a lot for this initiative.

    Hello to all of you, my Name is Manuela and I have joined SLAS Organisation about 5 years ago by beeing part of the start of SLAS Europe Industry Advisory Commitee.  This was very exciting and we as a Group had some Tasks to introduce SLAS to Europe and also started organising the first European conferences with a fantastic Team. Before that, I was visiting the annual conference for several years.

    By now I moved on to support the global Membership Committee - a very nice Team with great ideas to develop the Benefits for our members and have a growing community.
    Also I have the honour to be in the Scientific & organising commitee of the European SLAS Sample Management Conference Happening in Spring in Berlin. By the way we Extended the Deadline for Abstracts - anyone interested - dont hesitate to contact us .

    Coming to SLAS every Year is like a great reunion of a Family. Always excited to see you all and explore the News in Science to make a better and healthier world. :)

    Thanks Suzanne and hello to everyone. I've been a participant in ALA and SBS since 1999, when I first started as a Systems Analyst at Merck & Co. in North Wales, PA. I remember walking into the lab during my interview and being completely blown away by the vision of robots and devices performing scientific discovery to improve the quality of human health. That was literally my light bulb moment. 

    I just recently got more involved with SLAS by serving as an ad hoc member on Strategic Relations Council for the past year. I am looking forward to getting more involved with the organization. 

    Fun Fact: I am trying to teach myself piano and find it simultaneously fun and impossible. 

    See you in SD!

    Well thank you for the invite to say hi.  SLAS (and ALA) have been a key part of my professional life in automation since 2001.  I was President of ALA when the merger with SBS was completed to form SLAS in 2010-11.  I have attended every annual event in Palm Springs, San Diego and Washington and have seen the organisation grow in size and strength.  The available technology has changed significantly as the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and academic customers' demands have changed and as a member of the vendor community, we have been grateful for the annual opportunity to display our products to a worldwide audience. As my good friend Andy Z has said, it's a privilege and an honor to be part of this organization for so many years. 

    Fun fact: I don't have a dog ... but my wife and I remodel domestic properties, mainly because neither of us are that good at sitting down and not doing anything !

    For those who know me and those who don't, call by and say hi at San Diego next year.

    Thanks Suanne for the invite. Hope everyone is doing well. I have been a member of SLAS for a couple of years now and great to be a part of this. I have been working in pharmaceutical research and lab automation since 1999. Amazing to see how far the technology has come along.

    Fun Fact: My family and I love to travel, especially cruises. From the Caribbean beaches to the glaciers in Alaska, we try to travel the world by sea as much as possible.

    Looking forward to San Diego 2020!

    Hi all!

    My first manager and mentor in industry introduced me to SLAS, and I've been an enthusiastic member ever since. I've learned a great deal, and always look forward to the annual meeting.  Recently, I've volunteered to be a career mentor at the SLAS annual meeting, which has been extremely rewarding, I definitely recommend it.

    Fun fact: I'm a bit of a wine nerd, and have completed professional certification in both wine theory, production and tasting.  Not quite a sommelier yet, but maybe someday...

    I look forward to Leveling Up at SLAS2020 and of course the FUNd run!

    hi everyone, and greetings from an Italian in Sweden!
    Been a SLAS member for several years now, and attended several conferences during this time, both in the US and Europe. They are a great opportunity for learning and networking with friends old and new... not to mention that - for those loving automation - the SLAS exhibition floor is essentially an enormous playground.

    Fun fact: I don't have pets, but that's probably a good thing... after all, my favourite animal is the hippo, and having one of those as a pet wouldn't go down well in my household.

    Hi All,

    Thank you Suanne for the invitation.

    I've been an active member of SLAS for 2 years. Prior to that I visited the show a few times. I work in biotech and really like SLAS for its mission as it helps to make pharma and biotech R&D process faster and much more efficient.

    By participating in the Mentoring Program I enjoy the opportunity to share my experience and help students and early career professionals to grow their careers. I have been in their shoes not long ago and can personally relate to questions and issues they are facing.

    Fun fact: I have two kids and we love to go on road trips around California.

    I look forward to meeting everyone in San Diego!

    Best,
    Ivan

    Hello all,
    Suanne - Thanks for the invite to post!  And I have seen you at the SLAS Booth before!  Nice to link the face to a name.  (I shall post a pic to my profile soon!).
    My first SLAS-related conference was an SBS meeting in 1997!  I am still using the giveaway bag from that year​!!!  I currently co-chair the SLAS Sample Management SIG and we are just coming off from a highly successful SLAS Americas Sample Management Symposium in Boston.  My day job is heading up the Compound Management & Distribution group at Pfizer, based in Groton, CT.
    Fun Fact:  I do origami to keep my hands busy.  I did this one today during a telecon!

    Hello!

    For the last 13 years, I have been working for Merck Life Science (known as MilliporeSigma in North America), in the BioMonitoring business (servicing QC labs). I served at different functions in R&D and Marketing, covering technology development, technology scouting, management, and foresight. I just joined SLAS and will attend the January event in San Diego. I am also part of industrial associations like BioPhorum, where I am e.g. involved in technology roadmapping in the "robotic technologies" workstream. I am particularly interested in rapid microbial detection and smart robotics for QC applications, but also miniaturization and single cell approaches for next generation cell line development and process development.

    Fun fact: when I was 10, I won a drawing contest at school, as well as my first camera. It may explain why I still like photography, especially for wildlife. Beside that I am highly interested in military history and defense topics.

    Hello Suanne and hello everyone.

    I joined SLAS a few years ago through a common interest between data management, scientific informatics, lab instrumentation. My background is in bioinformatics, data management and data analysis. I served as session chair for the Data Analysis and Informatics tracks, then co-track chair for the same track and finally chair that same track for the 2020 conference. I also served as co-chair of the "AI for process automation" symposium that inaugurated in 2019 in Boston. 

    I learned a tremendous amount thanks to SLAS, its members and the excellent content of its conferences and symposium. I look forward to participating and encouraging more people to join.

    HI All and Happy New Year. I have been active in SBS and now SLAS for all of my professional career and it has meant a great deal to me. I have been able to learn so much from many of the other members and from being an active volunteer. I enjoy being on the Membership Committee, part of the student poster judging for the annual conference and active with the SIGs. Plus it is great to join in the Fund Run each year. I am so excited about getting to see so many folks at the upcoming conference in San Diego.

    Fun Fact: I organize a 5K Run at my undergraduate alma mater each year to raise money for a scholarship in memory of my brother give to science students. ​

    Hi Everyone,
    I have been a part of the SLAS community for about 5 years and have loved every minute of it. I initially got involved through the early career program and Tony B Travel award which helped me connect with an awesome network of peers and mentors. I started my scientific career at UCLA in Professor Dino Di Carlo's lab where I focused on developing new types of micro-fluidic and micro-magnetic technologies. After completing my doctorate I launched a startup called Ferrologix which is commercializing a new type of micro-magnetic cell purification and arraying technology. Currently I serve as COO for Ferrologix which is actively hiring and initiating R&D operations in San Diego. Last year we had the opportunity to present at the SLAS Innovation AveNew program and are excited to present some of our new work at the 2020 annual meeting.

    Personally speaking, I have been married for nine years to my amazing wife (Dayna), I have a dog (Nash) and recently added a little one (Layton) who is currently 5 months old. Currently, I'm still trying to balance being a new dad and a biotech entrepreneur, which, if you have insight or constructive criticism, I would love to hear. Feel free to stop by our poster (1028-D) or shoot me a message.

    I would love to hear from others on how they achieve the illusive work/life balance in the scientific and entrepreneurial world especially. It moves so fast.

    Hi everyone!  I have been involved with SLAS, primarily in the solid compound handling and screening submission (solid to liquid solubilization) area.  Below is a bit about my scope of work for Pfizer and work in solid compound and reagent inventory management.  I'm eager to connect with other SLAS and pharma/biotech colleagues that specialize in the solid material workflows specifically, as I believe the solid compound management arena is a highly valued but less visible function of the sample management/liquid handling space.

    This is my 23rd year at Pfizer (Alanex --> Agouron --> Warner Lambert --> Pfizer).  I manage the solid proprietary and reagent compound workflows for the La Jolla site, and also partner with global Pfizer and CRO partners to facilitate compound workflows from synthesis to screen to data.  Basically, everything in the compound synthesis and submission of analogs into the screening cascade process at the La Jolla site (as well as interfacing with CROs and oncology projects co-located at other Pfizer sites) is my scope of work. My area of expertise and scope of work include:  solid compound management workflows and logistics, coordination of solid to liquid (solubilized sample logistics) submission for oncology projects, data management/analytics/cycle time analysis, international and domestic compound shipments and harmonized tariff code assignments, informatic tool development, building/testing of compound management applications (proprietary and customized externally developed tools), and all compound management related functions from compound synthesis through the acquisition of data.   Additionally, I oversee the commercial reagent inventory for the LJ site (over 85K reagents), which includes a closed access on-line reagent inventory request and commercial ordering software system for procurement of commercially purchased reagents, internal registration, and on-site usage by chemists.

    Hi Suanne,

    Thanks for kicking off the introductions and hi to all.  I'm actually a new member to SLAS but have been around the periphery and working in automation for some 13 years and looking to get more involved in the community.  I am building out a product function at a fantastic and relatively new company working on software for the automation and digital space.  It has been amazing to be part of this ever changing and evolving industry and even better to now be at the bleeding edge.  Look forward to seeing you all in San Diego.

    Fun fact: I like to bake and twice a year try and do something a bit more creative for my little ones birthdays.  This year's efforts included a moon cake!.

    Hi Suanne

    Thanks for having this thread and hi to everyone. I have been with SLAS or SBS and Lab Automation since 2000s. This show has been always close to my heart in staying connected and for expanding network. With the high-tech fun at the show, it is at the same time the feeling of visiting my old village because of the warmth in seeing and working with colleagues where everybody knows everyone.  

    Fun Fact: My friends have adorable dogs - Tommy (alias Mr Hilfiger or Thomas Muller depending on time of the day!), Benny, Lola who are dear to me and I do not have any pet besides plants. I enjoy hiking and being out in the nature and mountains. Here photo from last year in search of Mt Everest viewing and saw several plus 26000 Ft peaks around there.

    Hi Suanne and all,

    I've just rejoined SLAS after some years focusing on a different industry. I was very active in the predecessor organizations to SLAS... I joined both organizations in the early 1990s. I was one of the initial members of ALA (I was the first ever person the register for the LabAutomation conference by their website and received an award for this from Tony B.... for those of you who were also involved back then).  I also served many different roles with the SBS (including conference committee, board member for two terms and President).

    I led the committee that established the first four microplate standards... it was an amazing years-long experience working closely with users and vendors to develop the standards.  It was during that time that I changed jobs from a drug discovery researcher at Merck & Co to joining Tecan, a manufacturer of research tools.

    As president of SBS, I initiated the conversations and kicked off the process with ALA regarding the merger of the two organizations. This all started over a drink with Jim Sterling, who was President of the ALA at the time. I am so happy to see that everything the organizations envisioned at the time has come true... this is truly a larger, stronger single organization.

    After that, I decided it was time to explore different spaces. So five years ago I relocated to Israel for Merck KgaA (MilliporeSigma/EMD in North America) to focus on investing in early stage technologies across a range of areas, but with a heavy focus on the materials and semi-conductor industries. I was interested in being more deeply involved in entrepreneurship and early stage start-ups. It was an amazing experience and I got to work with many different start-ups in many different industries.  I current act as an advisor to two... one in building materials and one in medical adherence technologies; two very different areas.

    Last week, I joined Thermo Fisher to focus on building up an external innovation program to similarly invest in earlier stage technologies and companies... and so I am now back focused on the Life Sciences again.

    I also have a dog.... Maizey is a 6 year old Collie/Australian Shepard mix (or so we were told) who has lost two fights with cats...(I learned that cats can give a dog a bloody nose).

    I see many old friends who have posted on this message string... so hello, I look forward to catching up with you all again and making new connections. Feel free to reach out.

    Hi Marc!

     

    I am a current board member of SLAS and also past SBS member.  Memorably, I spoke at the 2001 conference in Baltimore on September 12. Thanks so much for all your past service, and great to have you back in the community.  I hope to 'see' you at the SLAS 2021 Digital and that we can entice you to volunteer!

     

    Best wishes for the holidays,

    Michelle (Arkin)

    Hi Marc,

     

    Welcome back!!    I am the 2020 SLAS President, and I remember seeing you back there at the annual meetings. Like you I was involved since the very beginning in SBS and I was a member of the Board in the late 90's.  

    It is great to have you back.  These are difficult times because of the pandemic, but also very exciting times with regard to scientific and technological developments in our field.  I am sure that with the experience in the start-up industry during the last few years, you could add a lot of value to the future of SLAS.

     

    Hope to see you in the upcoming digital SLAS 2021 event, and hopefully in person soon.

     

    Best regards,

     

    Emilio Diez Monedero

    2020 SLAS President

    Hi Marc,
    Great to make your acquaintance and welcome to the SLAS Connected community.  Sounds like you have a lot of great experience in working with startups and life science innovation initiatives.  I think SLAS has some great opportunities for startups and new technology programs. My own experience in launching a startup and participating in the SLAS startup community (Innovation AveNew) has been really great. I would love to connect with you and learn more about Thermo Fisher's Innovation programs. Please feel free to message me on Connected, here is my Linkedin page as well: https://www.linkedin.com/in/colemanmurray/

    Nice to meet you.

    Best,
