Elise White, Computational Drug Design

 Elise is a computational biochemist with expertise in modelling complex enzyme systems using quantum and molecular mechanics, and molecular dynamics for catalytic mechanism simulation.

She joins the Kuano team with applied pharmaceutical research experience from working with Grünenthal. Elise is skilled in using machine learning to enhance drug discovery, particularly applying protein structural features to improve the performance of predictive models of protein function. She will play a key role in Kuano’s mission to integrate quantum simulation with effective drug design.

Elise holds a PhD in Biochemistry from the University of Bristol.
