Edward Nesbitt

Edward Nesbitt started their work experience in 2012 as an Industrial Placement Student at UCB, where they assisted in the development of new assays for pipeline products. Edward then worked as an Industrial Placement Student at Public Health England from 2013 to 2014, focusing on the expression of the Crimean-Congo Haemorrhagic Fever virus nucleoprotein.

In 2015, Edward joined the University of Bath as a PHD Researcher, specializing in identifying and engineering thermostable terpene synthases. Edward worked on identifying sativene synthase and naturally thermostable germacrene D-4-ol synthase using hidden Markov models. Additionally, they used homology modeling and prediction software to enhance the thermostability of mesostable terpene synthases.

Edward continued their work at the University of Bath as a Senior Scientist at Evonetix Ltd. Edward started as a Scientist in December 2019 and then transitioned to the role of Senior Scientist in February 2022. However, the end dates for both roles are not specified.

Throughout their work experience, Edward gained a wide range of skills, including DNA cloning, protein expression and purification, western blotting, ELISAs, and working with bacterial, insect, and mammalian expression systems.

Edward Nesbitt received their education in the field of biochemistry. Edward earned a Bachelor's Degree in Biochemistry from the University of Bath, completing their studies from 2011 to 2015. Edward continued their academic journey at the same university, pursuing a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Biochemistry from 2015 to 2019. Prior to their higher education, they attended Wallingford School from 2004 to 2011, though the specific degree and field of study are unknown.
