Peter is currently establishing HomoLogiX as a spin-off from the Zurich University of Applied Sciences (ZHAW), where he works as a Bioinformatician & Data Scientist. With a focus on structural bioinformatics and computational protein design, Peter brings both scientific expertise and an entrepreneurial mindset to his work.
Prior to his current role, Peter was involved at candidum GmbH, a computational enzyme design company where he started as a research assistant and eventually became CTO. During this time, he also completed his MSc and PhD while working full-time, balancing his studies with practical experience.
In response to the Covid-19 pandemic, Peter co-founded two additional companies to address the need for accessible Point-of-Care Diagnostics, including antigen and PoC-NAT tests. Both companies were planned as short term projects and were successfully lead into a quick Return-on-Investment.
