Biography
Burnet studied at the Universities of Melbourne and Adelaide (Ph.D.) prior to postdoctoral work in Canada, the U.S., and France focusing on biochemistry of oxygenases. He was then a discovery project manager at Zeneca in the United Kingdom involved in Hit-to-Lead characterization. He founded Synovo GmbH in Tubingen, Germany in 2004, and has since added 4 other self-sustaining enterprises. Synovo is a drug discovery and services company with a focus on in vivo disease models. In 2008, Synovo discovered a novel series of potent micro-environment modulators that modulate the cytokine patterns of tumours and notably that of the myeloid infiltrate. These substances synergize both checkpoint and other antibody therapies.
