Dr. Timothy Siegert received his Ph.D. in Chemistry from Tufts University in 2016, working under Dr. Joshua Kritzer. His work focused on computational identification of protein segments that mediate therapeutically relevant protein-protein interactions and subsequent design of macrocyclic peptide inhibitors for use as chemical probes. Upon completing his doctoral studies, Tim transitioned to biotech beginning as a postdoctoral scientist in peptide drug discovery and quickly advanced to a full scientist role. Here, he gained experience leading a variety of early stage discovery projects in the field of peptides, small molecules and biologics.

Prior to his doctoral studies, Tim received his B.S. from Boston College with a major in Chemistry and minor in Mathematics. During his undergraduate studies, he completed multiple internships in small molecule drug discovery at large pharma companies and worked under Dr. Evan Kantrowitz at Boston College learning enzymology and structural biology.
