Nora Haggerty

Nora graduated from UMass Amherst in 2022 with a BS in Biochemistry and a BS in Neuroscience. Throughout her time at UMass, Nora worked in the Vierling lab researching mitochondrial proteins to uncover mechanisms of plant stress responses. She first gained industry experience as a Targeted Protein Degradation intern at a biopharma company. Performing high-content imaging and compound validation assays with the team strengthened her passion for drug discovery and led her to pursue industry after college. Nora is excited to apply her skills and learn as she starts her career with Dewpoint Therapeutics!
