Teams at Convergent Research

Lead wetware integration of protein biosensors with surfaces, materials, and readout hardware. Design diagnostic assays to deconvolute biosensor vs. interface failure, run directed evolution, synthesize/adapt interface materials, merge devices with proteins, and automate fabrication/assay workflows to enable in‑vivo studies.

Manage financial operations for Convergent and its FROs, overseeing monthly close, reconciliations, treasury, AR/AP, payroll, grant financial oversight and reporting, audit readiness including 990s, and improvements to systems, controls, and SOPs while translating finance to non-finance stakeholders.

Design and validate novel biosensors combining allosteric switches, reporters, chemical modifications, and bioelectronic interfaces. Lead construct design, guide wet-lab screening, integrate device feedback, and mentor junior scientists and external collaborators to optimize performance and workflows.
