Carmen Nitsche

General Manager – CCDC, Inc.

Building on four years in the laboratory, eleven years in the chemical information field, and two years in chemical sales and service, I have spent the last 20 years in business development, database operations management and corporate development, involved in business unit strategy development and execution, and every aspect of strategic partner management, mergers and acquisitions for scientific software and database companies serving the pharmaceutical, chemicals, and academic markets. Throughout these years I have learned much about how companies can leverage a partner ecosystem to advance corporate goals, and I have learned the critical importance of personal relationships and open communication to successful M&A and partnerships. I thrive in a collaborative team environment and value my relationships with my customers and my partners.

Marc C. Nicklaus

Senior Scientist at National Cancer Institute (NCI)

I am an applied physicist who did graduate research in the area of electron interferometry. I also was interested in, and had training in, computer science starting from before my undergraduate days. This computational track led me to enter the field of molecular modeling as part of my postdoctoral work. Expanding the scope of my work to all aspects of chemical information, I am currently heading the Computer-Aided Drug Design (CADD) Group at the National Cancer Institute (NCI).
