Senior🎓
Top SchoolJulia Lazzari-dean is a senior scientist and chemical biologist with 12 years of experience developing microscopy-driven assays to probe neurodegeneration, cancer, and cellular electrophysiology. She combines a Ph.D. from UC Berkeley with deep hands-on expertise in quantitative, high-throughput imaging and biosensor design to translate complex biological measurements into drug discovery-ready platforms. At Calico and UCSF she built scalable microscopy workflows that address patient heterogeneity and physiological complexity, notably advancing ALS screening and voltage-imaging approaches hundreds-fold beyond traditional techniques. Comfortable at the interface of chemistry, optics, and biology, she excels at inventing tools that let researchers “see” dynamic biology in new ways. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, she brings a practical, product-oriented mindset to early discovery and a track record of moving methods from bench prototypes into robust research pipelines.
