Jenny Brookes
Our former Cresset colleague Jenny Brookes, Senior Application Scientist at Cresset.
Dr Jennifer Brookes has over 15 years of scientific research experience and background in theoretical and computational chemistry and biophysics. Her scientific contributions have ranged from exploring the possibility of quantum effects in olfaction, quantifying efficient energy transfer processes in photosynthesis to exploiting protein-protein interactions in antibody (nanobody)- antigen pairs.
Jennifer’s research has taken her from King’s College London to University College London, MIT, Harvard and most recently back to University College London at the London Centre for Nanotechnology as lead computational and theoretical biophysicist in the £11M EPSRC IRC for Early Warning Sensing Systems for Infectious Disease. As an FEP Application Scientist at Cresset Jennifer’s responsibilities include supporting customers to use Free Energy Perturbation calculations for reliable and accurate predictions of ligand binding free energies that will inform and guide their drug discovery projects.
