J. Thomas Eck
Computational Biology and Drug Discovery Consultant in New Jersey
Hello and welcome to the curriculum vitae
site of J. Thomas Eck. I am a Computational Biology and
Drug Discovery Consultant in New Jersey seeking project-based engagements in the New Jersey, New York, Philadelphia, and Delaware region.
If you are involved in computational drug
discovery, virtual screening, fragment screening,
drug docking studies, molecular dynamics
simulations, basic
research or
statistical analysis in the biomedical fields, I can be of great value to you by
offering my unique combination of skills, education,
and experience in the computational and life
science arenas.
During my twenty (20) years of providing software and
business consulting services to Fortune 500
companies in a wide range of industries, I have
consistently proven my ability to turn a client's
(often vague) requirements into a solid solution
that stands the tests of time and use. My
clients have engaged me to deliver solutions for
their most challenging line-of-business functions on
which the daily operation of their business depends.
I am particularly adept at building systems that are
capable of analyzing enormous amounts of data and
extracting the patterns that represent the greatest
business value to my clients.
During the last eight years, I have focused my
attention on the growing needs of the biomedical
research community. I am currently a PhD
candidate at
Rutgers University in the
Computational
Biology and Molecular Biophysics graduate program.
I am focusing on the application of computational
techniques to gain insight into atomic interactions
in various drug targets (including HIV Reverse
Transcriptase and Protease and bacterial RNA
Polymerase).
I spent the prior three-year period studying biotechnology at the
University of Pennsylvania where I had the opportunity to work with
world-class scientists who are defining the
post-genomic era and the influence that genomics,
proteomics, computational, and systems biology will
have on the drug design process in the 21st century.
At the University of Pennsylvania I specifically
concentrated on applications of computational and
mathematical methods to some of the most complex and
important aspects of biomedicine faced by
researchers today. Several areas of my studies have
resulted in novel advances that are being patented
and/or published.
I am prepared to deliver this same level of
excellence to your organization via staff
augmentation, project-based engagements, or other
arrangements that you may find more suitable.
My track record of successes is unparalleled in the
industry and I am personally responsible for saving
companies millions of dollars in software system
development.
Thank you for taking the time to consider engaging
me in your next project. You can find a great deal
about my education, publications, client base, and
recent research achievements on the remainder of
this site.
If you would like to
contact me, please feel free to do so at any time.
Best Regards,
J. Thomas (Tom) Eck
