I’ve spent most of the last 15 years doing medicinal chemistry for psychiatric and neurological illness, first in academia and now as Director of Medicinal Chemistry at Xylo.bio here in Sydney, where we’re designing new CNS drug candidates. Drug discovery is slow, and the people waiting on it don’t have that kind of time, so this year I’m hiking to raise money for mental illness.
Would you consider making a donation, leaving a message, or sharing this page?
Thank you.
1 in 4 families is affected by mental illness.
