Schering-Plough 1982 – 1999 – responsible for Development and manufacturing of biopharmaceuticals, including one of the first recombinant dna drugs – interferon.
In 1996, developed a novel way of culturing cells in disposable bags. Left Schering-Plough in 1999 to found Wave Biotech to manufacture and market this device known as the Wave Bioreactor. This became very popular world-wide for R&D and manufacture of vaccines, antibodies, viruses …
Sold Wave Biotech in 2007 to do “other” things. In 2013, Started to apply chemical engineering and disposable technology to process of wine making. This resulted in a novel device that makes winemaking easy, requires almost no water, minimal labor and little investment. In 2014 set up a commercial winery – Sky Acres Winery to test and develop the winemaking machine now named the GOfermentor. This winery has won numerous awards over the last 3 years. In 2017 started the commercial manufacture and sale of the GOfermentor. The latest project is to develop a home version of the GOfermentor.
