Background

About Peter Busk

I am an innovator with long experience as manager of development projects in both private and public biotech. By combining creativity in problem solving with discipline and careful, realistic planning I accomplish challenging projects in due time and with the alloted resources, e.g; the development of a new miRNA qPCR system for Exiqon. On a technical level I am an expert molecular biologist in the broad sense with experience in assay technology, immunology, cell biology, biochemistry and other related disciplines. I learned programming by self-study and have used this skill in bioinformatics and statistical analysis of biological big data resulting in a number of publications, patent applications and the technological basis of a biotech company. In addition to science and development I have experience in development and sales of new products, in managing a biotech company and in investment. Moreover, I have streamlined or established quality systems according to GLP, GMP and ISO in several organisations and supervised Ph.D. and master students and taught biochemistry, bioinformatics, genetics, molecular biology and innovation at university level (please, see the recommendations below from some of my students). I am author of more than 70 scientific publications, patents, a book and several software projects on Sourceforge.
