Richard Hanna

Associate Director Bioscience Immunology

I am a senior biopharmaceutical scientist, leading a drug discovery and validation team in the Early Respiratory and Immunology group at AstraZeneca. My group is responsible for the identification and development of new targets, and support for a large clinical stage pipeline for the treatment of respiratory and autoimmune disorders. My Immunological expertise is recognized by an appointment as an Instructor in the Department of Inflammation at The La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology, San Diego, CA where I previously worked to identify novel transcription factors regulating hematopoietic stem cell development and inflammatory activation in disease. I received my PhD from East Carolina University, following investigation of the role of nongenomic steroid receptors in germ cell development. I have over 20 years of research experience in biotech and academic research across a variety of research areas with over 30 high impact publications in journals such as Science, Nature Immunology, Cell, and Immunity.
