PhD Medicinal Chemistry and Drug Discovery, University of Dundee
Thank you
Eleanor graduated from the University of Dundee in 2018 with a first-class honours degree in Biological Chemistry and Drug Discovery. During this time, she developed a keen interest in medicinal chemistry and early-phase drug development. In 2016, she won the University’s Carnelly Prize for a proficiency in chemistry, along with the Graham Smith Prize for achieving the highest grades in her degree stream. Her dissertation was focussed on synthesising covalent fragments for use in fragment-based drug discovery.
Eleanor then completed an interdisciplinary PhD in Antibacterial Drug Discovery. Her research was focussed on the development of chemical probes for use in mode of action studies in Gram-negative bacteria. During her PhD, she gained experience in organic synthesis, medicinal chemistry, biochemistry, drug discovery and bacterial molecular biology.
Eleanor joined Keltie in July 2023 and is training to become a qualified UK and European patent attorney.
Thank you
