Dr. Kahn received his A.B. from Harvard and Ph.D. from Berkeley.
Joshua D. Levin, Ph.D.

 

Joshua D. Levin, Ph.D. is the Director of Research and Development for KPL, Inc. In this capacity he oversees KPL's development, manufacture and marketing of high quality immunochemicals for life science and in vitro diagnostics. Previously, at Life Technologies, he gained commercial experience in assay development and technical support for nucleic acid applications. At Digene, Dr. Levin perfected his skills under FDA QSR regulations for in-vitro DNA diagnostic kits. Dr. Levin earned his Ph.D. from Harvard and his B.S. from Brandeis.
David H. Mathews, M.D., Ph.D.

 

David H. Mathews, M.D., Ph.D. is Assistant Professor of Biochemistry and Chemistry at the University of Rochester. Dr. Mathews' work has been instrumental in helping Celadon's software better predict the role and impact of folding and cross hybridization of primers and probes. His work spans the fields of Computational Biology and Bioinformatics. His research focuses on predicting nucleic acid structure, developing computational tools for targeting RNA with pharmaceuticals, and using RNA as a pharmaceutical. Dr. Mathews has refined algorithms that predict folding and cross hybridization.
Cy A. Stein, M.D., Ph.D.

 

Cy A. Stein, M.D., Ph.D. is Professor of Medicine, Urology and Molecular Pharmacology at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, and Head of the Medical Genitourinary Oncology Service at the Montefiore Medical Center in the Bronx, NY.
