JIE JACK LI, PHD has practiced medicinal chemistry since 1997 at Pfizer, BMS, and Revolution Medicines, respectively, with a four-year sojourn at the University of San Francisco as an Associate Professor, teaching medicinal and organic chemistry. He is currently a vice president at ChemPartner, splitting his time between San Francisco and Shanghai. He has authored or edited 30 books and many of those were published by Wiley, including Drug Discovery: Practices, Processes, and Perspectives, Innovative Drug Synthesis, Modern Drug Synthesis, The Art of Drug Synthesis, and Contemporary Drug Synthesis.
