@markokugor
I build GMP-compliant quality processes, documentation, and risk controls for regulated life sciences work.
What I'm looking for
I led a four-year scientific programme at the University of Stuttgart, managing planning, controlled execution, technical review, formal reporting, and €200K+ in DFG-funded deliverables.
My work centers on traceable documentation, protocol and data review, deviation investigation, root cause analysis, corrective actions, and procedure development for complex DNA nanotechnology workflows. I’ve verified experimental data across TEM, DLS, AFM, UV/Vis, fluorimetry, and gel-electrophoresis methods.
Earlier at the University of Bonn, I led a doctoral research project, published peer-reviewed work, coordinated an international collaboration with Nagoya University, and trained more than five students in procedures, record keeping, data review, and technical reporting. I’m now applying this disciplined, evidence-based approach to GMP compliance and pharmaceutical quality systems.
