Pieter Bos is a principal scientist and product manager of AutoDesigner and De Novo Design workflows. At Schrödinger, his main focus is the research, development and optimization of automated compound design algorithms. Lead scientist for the design and execution of enumerated drug molecule libraries for internal and collaborative drug design projects. He received his Ph.D. in Synthetic Organic Chemistry from the University of Groningen in the laboratory of Prof. Ben Feringa. Prior to joining Schrödinger, he worked as a postdoctoral researcher in synthetic methodology development at Boston University (Prof. John Porco and Prof. Corey Stephenson) and small molecule drug discovery at Columbia University (Prof. Brent Stockwell.).

Sathesh Bhat, Ph.D., executive director in the therapeutics group, joined Schrödinger in 2011. He is responsible for overseeing computational chemistry efforts on internal and partnered drug discovery programs at Schrödinger. Previously, Sathesh worked at both Merck and Eli Lilly leading computational efforts in several drug discovery programs. He obtained his Ph.D. from McGill University, which involved developing structure-based methods to predict binding free energies. Sathesh has co-authored multiple patents and publications and continues to publish on a wide variety of topics in computational chemistry.

Zef Könst is a principal scientist in the therapeutics group at Schrödinger where he is responsible for drug discovery project execution as a medicinal chemist. Zef joined Schrödinger in 2020 after working at Novartis and Nurix Therapeutics and has contributed to four compounds in clinical development. He received his Ph.D. from University of California, Irvine under Professor Vanderwal.
