The Advisory Group for ChemSpider has been undergoing some turnover to bring fresh faces and new ideas. We are glad to welcome Rudy Potenzone to our members. I have known Rudy for a number of years and have had the privilege of working with him during his tenure at Microsoft as he hosts the BioIT Alliance.

From the Advisory group page:
Rudy Potenzone has joined the ChemSpider advisory board to add his broad product experience in delivering novel user experiences for large enterprise and commercial databases. “Science is driven by the ability to see what has already been done, and expand upon it. Access to existing information is best provided by capable capture of the original data in context and at the time of creation. ChemSpider facilitates that data capture and its subsequent broad dissemination.” Rudy is currently the Worldwide Pharma Industry Technology Strategist for Microsoft. Previously he ran R&D at MDL (during the early development of DiscoveryGate and Isentris), Research and New Product Development at Chemical Abstracts (during the original SciFinder development), and the ELN Development group at CambridgeSoft. Other products that Rudy was involved with include QUANTA/CHARMm (Polygen/MSI/Accelrys), ChemLAB, Ingenuity Pathway Analysis and the NIH/EPA Chemical Information System.
