After completing my research project at University of Cambridge, Department of Biochemistry, I was a post-doctoral fellow at University of Edinburgh, Institute of Cell and Molecular Biology (Scotland). Then I was a postdoctoral fellow at The Rockefeller University, (New York, USA). Currently I am a scientific advisor at Manhattan-based law firm, intellectual property litigation group. I am also president of Synapsis Inc., a corporation that identifies and facilitates ventures between American and Russian companies, including pre-clinical research, phase I-IV clinical trials, cosmetic surgery and others.
