Drug Discovery Innovation

"My objective is to listen, learn your challenges, and provide solutions which enable my clients to be perpetually successful without the use of a consultant like myself."

-John Harman 2023

Nearly 30 years of experience streamlining the execution of design-make-test-analyze using lean processes, radical leadership and agile methods to implement scientific workflows - bring these blueprints to your organization.

Drug Discovery

Design-make-test-analyze workflow optimization for accelerated therapeutic development.

Instrumentation

Selection, implementation and training to ensure long term success of instrumentation through vendor engagement to ensure the best fit for your people (researchers and ops), processes (your science) and technology (IT and Automation)

Informatics

Ensure information systems accelerate your science rather than being a 'necessary evil'. Typically even the biggest vendors need to be specifically instructed on how to use their product in the best way for YOUR applications. Implement a digital solution architecture to maximize knowledge, streamline critical decision-making processes and innovate faster.

Automation

Design and implement your automation solutions by selecting the best vendors and devices for YOUR workflows and long term objectives. Ensure that your automation operates in harmony with the rest of your scientific ecosystem.

Scientific Expertise

Excellence in analytical chemistry including chiral separations, high throughput purification, high throughput bioanalysis and mass spectrometry quantitation. High throughput chemistry, screening, ADME, sequencing and biophysical characterization.
