Dr. Paul Hawkins, OpenEye Scientific.Applications Science Group Leader PhD, University of St. Andrews, 1993 Paul got his Ph.D from  University in Southampton. After a post-doc in the U.S. and Australia he settled, in New England (Boston) to work in biotech as a medicinal chemist. In this capacity he was involved in a variety of project areas, making a wide range of compounds. After a number of years at the bench he became an applications scientist for Tripos, covering the New England area. Paul has numerous publications and patents to his credit. His professional experience includes OpenEye Scientific, Tripos, Arqule, Paratek & Ariad Pharmaceuticals. Dr. Christopher Bayly, OpenEye Scientific. Senior Scientist Ph.D. University of New Brunswick, 1991 Starting off with a B.Sc. in Biochemistry, Christopher initially moved into synthetic organic chemistry,. A couple of years later he switched to theoretical chemistry, tying up the synthetic organic work with a Master's degree. He has a doctorate in Theoretical Chemistry . He did his postdoc in Peter Kollman's group at UCSF. Subsequently joining Merck Frosst in Montreal in 1992, he founded and built the Chemistry Modeling and Informatics group there, leading it right through to the very end with the closure of the research site in 2010. He developed new charging method AM1-BCC (with his first PhD student Araz Jakalian) and is best known for his work on molecular polarization with Jean-Francois Truchon. Dr. Gregory L. Warren, OpenEye Scientific. Senior Applications Scientist PhD, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1994 Greg went to graduate school at MIT where he studied protein crystallography, solution and solid-state NMR in the labs of Greg Petsko and Bob Griffin. He did hid post-doc at Brünger lab at Yale. He worked as a computational chemist at SmithKline Beecham later, to become GlaxoSmithKline. Prof. Indira Ghosh, School of Computational & Integrative Sciences (earlier called SIT ), JNU. Indira is engaged in drug designing since her Ph.D research at I.I.Sc. With a brief Fulbright scholarship post-doc with Prof. J.A.McCammon at Houston she has worked in research institute in an out of country and has 13 years experience at AstraZeneca, Bangalore as leader of the CADD & Bioinformatics. Since 2003 she worked as Director, Bioinformatics center at Pune as a Professor , IBB. In JNU since 2008 she is working as project leader in the COE-DBT supported Center for Computational Biology & Bioinformatics . Her area of research encompasses gene based identification & validation of target, design of compounds for hit to lead phase. Recently her team has been working on an EU-supported FP7 project (OpenTox) on “Toxicity Prediction” which has been completed in 2011.
