Nicholas Marshall

Nicholas Marshall has over 13 years of professional experience. Nicholas began their career in 2006 as a Graduate Research Assistant at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where they studied bio-inorganic chemistry and pushed the boundary on our understanding of how proteins regulate electronic properties like redox potential. In 2012, they became a Postdoctoral Fellow at UT Austin, where they invented enzymatic immunotherapy by engineering enzymes that degrade immuno regulatory small molecules in vivo. In 2015, they joined Merck as a Senior Scientist in Protein Engineering, where they built enzymes for the most innovative chemical processes of the time and helped assemble a team and workflow for enzyme evolution to support process chemistry research and development. In 2019, they joined Invenra as a Group Lead, then Director, and finally Senior Director.

Nicholas Marshall attended the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign from 2006 to 2011, where they earned a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Chemistry. Prior to that, they attended Illinois State University from 2002 to 2006, where they earned a Bachelor's Degree in Chemistry.
