Lim Jaeyoung / Intellectual Property I worked as a patent attorney in Kim&Chang law firm after graduating School of Chemical and Biological Engineering in Seoul National University. Currently, I am leading Intellectual Property team at Voronoi. "I had been leading many cases on patent and intellectual property on behalf of global leading companies including pharmaceutical companies. Especially, I was handling many IP M&A cases including IP due diligence and freedom-to-operate analysis. Also I worked at JunHe, the Chinese law firm, and handled many cases on China IP issue. Based on this experience, I am currently leading IP team and building IP strategy in Voronoi to protect our valuable assets in pipeline and maximize the value of them. The importance of intellectual property in pharmaceutical and biology area is never too high. In order to protect and increase the value of assets in pipeline, protecting IP rights and designing IP strategies is essential. I will do my best to maximize Voronoi’s pipeline values through IP management." Patent attorney KIM & CHANG Seoul National University, B.S.

"Machine learning is applied to a variety of areas such as image recognition, voice regonition, autonomous driving, etc. Recently, it is being applied to life sciences as well and prediction in protein folding which shows better performance than existing method is one of the representative cases. AI Lab aims to develop machine learning model that is specifically designed for new drug development. We are continuing our research and development in creating the effective solution to all possible problems in the journey of new drug development. There is not much data accumulated in this field and therefore, it is critical to effectively and efficiently analyze and use the data and knowledge we have in hand. We are using unsupervised learning method and with more data to come from Voronoi scientists and R&D team, we expect to improve our AI development platform.

Seoul National University, B.S. Fast growth "For Voronoi, it only takes 1.5 years to develop a new drug candidate." For Voronoi, it only takes 1.5 years to develop a new drug candidate while it usually takes 4.5 years in the industry average. The speed is exceptionally high. The reason for this high speed is because we, Voronoi, have many talents and professional experts who majored in molecular modeling, medicinal chemistry, and kinase inhibitor development. Each of them are Dr. Kim, Dr. Choi, and Dr. Gray. They all have previous experience of creating and developing novel small molecule drugs and out-licensing them to global leading pharmaceutical companies. I am proud that I can be also part of this team and the company, learning from them. There are much more to catch up. My job definitely requires fast learning speed. Collaboration "Effective partnership" Voronoi is collaborating with Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Yonsei University Medical School, Korea Brain Research Institute, National Cancer Center, etc. We also have Dr. Janne of Harvard Medical School as our scientific advisory board for our lung cancer pipeline. We frequently have a discussion with our partners and advisors. Collaboration does not only apply to external partners, but also to internal teams. Voronoi pursue open-minded and respecting working culture and we aim to have effective discussion between teams and divisions. If you can lead effective meetings with bright energy, you will find yourself so fit into our culture. Work & Life balance "Flexible and Efficient" Voronoi pursues flexible and efficient working culture. You don’t need to sit on the chair only to show your presence. Suppose you have personal appointments and want to leave office early. You can always do so if you are done with your work. We give ownership and responsibility to each employee with huge trust. You can find flexible working culture here in Voronoi.

Yonsei University Health center, Researcher Yonsei University, M.S. Yonsei University Health center Yonsei University, M.S. Work "Hello, I am Donghyuk Seo, and I am in charge of getting IND package ready and done." Q. What do you do in translational research team? ‘Where the possibilities are transitioned to reality.’ If I may introduce translational research team in one sentence, I would like to say it’s a place where the possibilities are transitioned to reality. For many, translational research team may be unfamiliar. It’s a place that is in charge of preclinical research and production of synthetic drugs excluding in vitro field. Our team is divided into DS and DP research parts, which produce synthetic drugs on a large scale, and in vivo efficacy and toxicity research parts. I am in charge of in vivo potency studies, toxicity studies, and clinical trials, which all leads to IND filing. Many types of in vivo potency tests are conducted in animal laboratories within Voronoi. However, there are some of the studies that needs to be done by CROs including immunological disease model for determining the anti-inflammatory effects, or GLP Toxicology studies to determine whether a drug is toxic. These studies are led by translational research team so that the whole IND package is ready and done. To applicants, “Pay no mind to fear, be strong!” Q. What are the requirements for your work? There are a lot of requirements including scientific background. However, other than scientific knowledge, you would need to have certain level of business communication skillsets as you will work dynamically with overseas CROs. Q. Any last advice? The feeling that pops up on my mind when I think back of the time I was looking for a job is “fear”, a doubt whether I can do it well or not. Don’t be afraid, be strong and bold with confidence that you can achieve, then I assure you that you will end up with a very sweet and mysterious result.
