    Emily Leproust, PhD.

    CEO und Mitbegründerin von Twist

    Als frühe Pionierin in der Hochdurchsatzsynthese und -sequenzierung von DNA revolutioniert Dr. Leproust die Märkte, um das exponentielle Wachstum von DNA-basierten Anwendungen wie Chemikalien/Materialien, Diagnostika, Therapeutika, Lebensmittel und digitale Datenspeicherung zu ermöglichen. Im Jahr 2020 überreichte BIO ihr den Rosalind Franklin Award for Leadership. Sie war auf der Liste der „100 Leading Global Thinkers“ des Magazins Foreign Policy und auf der Liste der „Most Creative People“ von Fast Company. Vor ihrer Tätigkeit bei Twist erfüllte sie Aufgaben mit zunehmender Verantwortung bei Agilent Technologies, wo sie die erfolgreiche SureSelect-Produktlinie entwickelte, die die Kosten für die Sequenzierung senkte und Mechanismen aufklärte, die für Dutzende von Mendelschen Krankheiten verantwortlich sind. Daneben entwickelte sie die Oligo Library Synthesis-Technologie, bei der sie Produkt- und Geschäftsentwicklungsaktivitäten für das Team initiierte und leitete. Dr. Leproust plante und entwickelte mehrere kommerzielle Syntheseplattformen zur Optimierung der Herstellung und Fertigung von Microarrays. She serves on the Board of Directors of GeneDx and is a co-founder of Petri, an accelerator for start-ups at the forefront of engineering and biology. Dr. Leproust hat über 30 Peer-Review-Artikel veröffentlicht – viele davon über Anwendungen synthetischer DNA – und ist Autorin zahlreicher Patente. Sie erhielt ihren Ph.D. in organischer Chemie von der University of Houston und ihren M.Sc. in Industriechemie von der Lyon School of Industrial Chemistry.
