Previous to her graduate work, she obtained a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry and Bachelor of Arts in Biology from the University of Rochester. Dr. Chery did post-doctoral research at Harvard Medical School/Massachusetts General Hospital where she identified novel small molecules with therapeutic potential for Ebola virus. While there, she collaborated on projects developing small molecules such as antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) and RNAi as therapeutic modalities for metabolic diseases. Pursuant to this, Dr. Chery became a research fellow at Dana Farber Cancer Institute where she developed a gene therapy approach for Very Early Onset Inflammatory Bowel Disease (VEO-IBD) using CRISPR and viral vector technologies. After her postdoc fellowship, Dr. Chery became a full-time CMC reviewer at the FDA.
