Christian Adams
Head of Biochemistry and Research Applications, Ventures Portfolio Lead, Palo Alto, CA
MY WORK
I've had the opportunity to do many different things in my time at IFF. I've worked on the bench and in the labs of some of the world's largest consumer products companies. I've traveled the world and even spent two years in Shanghai, leading our Discovery Biochemistry team. In the last few years, I've spent my time in Palo Alto, at the heart of Silicon Valley.
INSPIRATION
I work on teams that build new biotech products. Not only do these products improve the lives of millions of people around the world, but they also do it sustainably. I am most excited about working at the interface between people and invention. I am amazed at what we have done -- and will be able to do -- with biotechnology.
Our Scientists
As we focus on innovation, our need for scientists and other talented employees is critical in the development of new products and technologies. This is an integral component of our growth strategy. Meet some of our people, who are not just challenging the status quo but working on the building blocks for products around the world.
