Lassogen's mission is to unlock the full potential of our engineered Lassotides™ as a new therapeutic modality for diagnosing and treating some of our most intractable health challenges. Realizing our grand vision requires an outstanding team with the right skills, experience, and shared passion to turn great ideas into real cures.
It's all about the people. Meet our team.
A serial entrepreneur, Mark has over 30 years of experience in academia and biotech/pharma at both small and large companies. He has built high performance teams, new technologies, platforms, IP portfolios, and product pipelines, from ideation to commercialization. Mark earned a PhD in organic chemistry from Yale University and performed postdoctoral work at MIT with Nobel laureate Barry Sharpless. Mark has published over 80 peer-reviewed papers and is an inventor on over 300 patents. Mark has received many honors and awards and has presented over 300 lectures at major conferences and universities.
As Lassogen's Chief Development Officer, Hiroko brings over 30 years of drug development experience to the team. Hiroko has led a wide range of programs at both large and small companies, including Pfizer, Aires, Neurogen, and Viking Therapeutics. Hiroko's expertise spans drug discovery, preclinical development, formulations development, and IND submissions for numerous drug candidates that are in advanced clinical trials. Hiroko earned a PhD at UCLA with Professor Robert Stevens, and conducted postdoctoral studies at MIT with Professor Barry Sharpless.

Professor Mitchell is a recognized leader in the fields of genome mining and natural products research, with an emphasis on understanding the biosynthesis, structure, and function of lasso peptides. Doug wrote the algorithm called RODEO, which was trained by machine learning and unexpectedly revealed the broad prevalence and sequence diversity of lasso peptides in nature. Doug and Lassogen are collaborating on various programs aimed at implementing cell-free technology for lasso peptide discovery and optimization. PhD: UC Berkeley; Post-doc: UC, San Diego School of Medicine.
Professor Handel is one of the foremost experts in the area of protein structure and function, with an emphasis on G protein-coupled receptors and the chemokine receptor subclass. Tracy and her team determined some of first structures of chemokine receptors bound to ligands and has gained great insight into the structural requirements for binding and modulation of chemokine function. Tracy and Lassogen are collaborating on the design of novel lasso peptides as high affinity ligands for chemokine receptors and other GPCRs. PhD: California Institute of Technology; Post-doc: DuPont Merck.
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
