Dr. Nelson Chepkwony is Chief Science Officer of Marvel Labs. He received his Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences from Cornell University and his Ph.D. in Microbiology from Indiana University.

Nelson has worked as a research scientist and post-doctoral fellow at Université de Montréal in Quebec, Canada. He has researched extensively how bacteria attach to surfaces and form biofilms, with specific focus on the synthesis and properties of bacterial adhesives (holdfast) and their adaptation to different ionic environments (marine vs. freshwater). He has published several research articles on holdfast.

His research aims, in part, to develop synthetic bioadhesives in order to eliminate biofouling and corrosion and improve adhesive uses on wet surfaces.

Previously, Dr. Chepkwony
also worked as a microbiology supervisor at Pathogenia Inc. in Montreal, where he developed and validated analytical methods for testing presence of microbes in food and active pharmaceutical ingredients for compliance with FDA regulations and licensing from Health Canada. Prior to pursuing his graduate studies, he worked as a Lead quality-control chemist and Analytical method development & Validation scientist at PCI Synthesis in Newburyport, Massachusetts.
