Draft:John J. Irwin
| Submission declined on 28 July 2024 by Notcharizard (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Biography
[edit]Irwin earned his Ph.D. in organic chemistry under the supervision of Jack D. Dunitz at ETH Zurich in 1991.[1] He worked at a molecular modeling start-up before joining Gérard Bricogne's team at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, where he developed software for macromolecular crystallographic structure solution and refinement, including the BUSTER and SHARP programs.[2] Irwin later served as a staff scientist at the European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI) in Cambridge. In 2000, he moved to the Northwestern University Medical School. He later moved to the UCSF Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry. Since then, he has worked on the development of DOCK[3], ZINC[4], and the similarity ensemble approach (SEA)[5]. [6]
