Summary
George G is a Senior Knowledge Strategy Manager with nine years of experience applying biochemical and structural biology expertise to data curation, ontologies, and knowledge engineering for life sciences. Trained as a biochemist and X‑ray crystallographer, he has translated hands-on lab skills—from CRISPR workflows and mass spectrometry to fragment‑based drug discovery—into designing FAIR-aligned taxonomies, knowledge graphs, and harmonized data models for enterprise products. At Elsevier he leads a multidisciplinary team building the taxonomies that underpin life science offerings, and previously consulted across Novartis on data harmonization, ontology-driven annotation, and evaluation of AI/text-mining tools. His background as a UniProt and GOA biocurator gives him an uncommon combination of deep domain knowledge and pragmatic data craftsmanship, enabling organizations to ask and answer complex cross-source questions. Based in Dundee with international experience, he enjoys teaching and outreach, turning specialist laboratory insights into scalable knowledge solutions.
