Senior Scientist
AstraZeneca
My name is Laura Simpson, I have a PhD in Chemical and Biochemical Engineering from the University of Maryland Baltimore County and I am currently a Senior Scientist at AstraZeneca working in Late Stage Formulation Sciences. In my PhD I studied beta amyloid protein aggregation in 3D hydrogel brain models to model early Alzheimers Disease. As a formulation scientist I have worked on oncology drugs in both IV and subcutaneous administrations. I began studying CSTD compatibility and functionality as these devices are more commonly being used in oncology drug preparation.
