Laura Silvian PhD

Dr. Laura Silvian leads the innovative Physical Biochemistry and Molecular Design group within the Synthetic Medicinal Design department at Biogen. We use structure-based, rational drug design and biophysical assessments to enable improvement of potency, selectivity, or developability of therapeutics. We influence decisions of program teams through designing biologics and small-molecule modalities using cutting-edge techniques in structural biology, biophysical methods, and protein science.
