Senior🎓
Top SchoolJonathan McDaniel is a Sr. Principal Scientist and biomedical engineer with nine years of industry experience pioneering high-throughput antibody discovery, single-cell paired VH:VL workflows, and automation-integrated NGS pipelines. At Pfizer he led efforts to replace traditional sequencing with cost- and time-saving nanopore approaches and has deep hands-on experience with long- and short-read platforms across multiple species. His background spans from inventing a flow-focusing device for natively paired antibody discovery to implementing in vivo selection protocols and multiplex primer sets for uncommon species, demonstrating both bench-to-bioinformatics fluency and process-scale thinking. Colleagues rely on him to translate complex experimental challenges into robust, automated discovery workflows that accelerate derisking of antibody leads. Based in Newton, MA, he combines academic rigor from a Duke PhD with pragmatic engineering instincts honed across academia, pharma, and defense-focused rapid-response programs.
