Allison Olszewski
Director, Protein Biochemistry
X-Chem
Dr. Olszewski joined X-Chem in 2016 as Associate Director of Protein Biochemistry. She developed Avimer panning techniques against membrane-bound targets at Avidia, Inc. (acquired by Amgen in 2006) from 2006 to 2007. From 2007 to 2015 she worked at GlaxoSmithKline, where she expanded the use of DNA-encoded library technology to non-soluble targets. Before joining X-Chem, Dr. Olszewski managed the screening hit validation effort, and developed protein-protein interaction assays for the Small Molecule Assisted Receptor Targeting (SMART) technology platform at Warp Drive Bio. Dr. Olszewski received her B.S. in Biochemistry from the University of Delaware, and her Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry/Chemical Biology from the University of California, Irvine.
