Maria is responsible for the innovative Cancer Research UK (CRUK) – AstraZeneca (AZ) Antibody Alliance Laboratory. She manages a multidisciplinary team of 14 scientists from both CRUK and AstraZeneca at this CRUK-funded facility.

The laboratory utilises AstraZeneca’s core Antibody Discovery and 蛋白质英格ineering technologies and capabilities to discover candidate drugs for future evaluation in the treatment of cancer. This innovative Alliance has access to the CRUK oncology Principal Investigator (PI) network, which represents over 4000 researchers throughout the UK. Maria leads the Alliance team to work with selected PIs on a current portfolio of 8 projects. In 2018, the Alliance Lab was independently reviewed and described as having ‘world class’ antibody discovery capabilities.

Maria is also an industry recognised expert and leader in the field of ribosome display and protein engineering. She joined 剑桥 Antibody Technology in 2000 and established herself as an externally recognised scientific expert in ribosome display.

As a project leader, her biggest success to date has been leading the R&D phase of MEDI1814 – an antibody therapeutic being explored for the potential treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease which is now in Phase 1 clinical trials.

 

Our collaboration with CRUK for the Antibody Alliance Laboratory allows us to accelerate the translation of novel science into antibodies and potential therapeutics. We're able to partner efficiently and directly with scientists to identify novel targets - ultimately with the aim of helping cancer patients.
