Background

About Alan Meis

Experienced and results-driven leader with a strong background in synthetic chemistry. With over three years of project leadership in Agrochemical Discovery, I excel in fostering cross-functional collaboration and leading high-performing teams to deliver innovative solutions aligned with company objectives. Over the course of seven years at Dow and Corteva, I have honed my expertise as a bench chemist, applying core Medicinal Chemistry techniques—such as ligand design, ADMET optimization, scaffold hopping, and isosteric replacements—across both Lead Optimization and Lead Generation projects. I have extensive experience in a broad range of synthetic methodologies, with a particular emphasis on heterocyclic chemistry, parallel synthesis, and phosphorus chemistry. Known for challenging the status quo and driving project advancement in fast-paced environments, I'm enthusiastic to bring my expertise to the field of Drug Discovery and Development.
