Victor Rusu

Victor Rusu, a senior associate at ATP, is focused on emerging targets and technologies, with specific experience and expertise in cell biology and functional genomics. Victor was a member of the biotech equity research team at Citigroup, and before that, he was one of the first scientists at Jnana Therapeutics, a biotechnology company focused on building a drug discovery platform to systematically target SLC transporters.

Victor earned a PhD from Harvard University and completed his graduate school training at the Broad Institute. During his time at Harvard, Victor identified distinct molecular mechanisms through which coding and noncoding mutations in an uncharacterized transporter increase type 2 diabetes risk.
