Your GPCR Program Is Too Important to Leave to Guesswork

❌ The data’s here — but we can’t make decisions.

❌ We thought the CRO had it covered.

❌ The right tools — but limited biotech reach

❌ We want to invest, but something doesn’t feel right.

Power Discovery

How It Works

Start the Conversation

We'll begin by discussing your current program, what's already underway, and any obstacles you face.

This is a targeted exploration of your unique situation, no pitch, just clarity on where and how we might work together effectively.

Identify Your Objectives

Whether you're focused on target identification, selecting the right CROs, developing robust assays, or refining your portfolio strategy, we'll clearly define how I can best support your team.

Together, we'll shape a tailored approach aligned precisely with your goals.

Collaborate for Success

I seamlessly integrate into your discovery process, helping to remove obstacles, enhance execution, and generate actionable data.

Our partnership is designed to foster strategic alignment, confident decision-making, and sustained progress from conception to implementation.

How I work (and What You Get)

I bring structure, speed, and scientific clarity to complex discovery programs, working as a trusted partner across biotech, VC, CRO and vendor teams.

Strategic and Collaborative

I work alongside your team — not outside it — aligning science, operations, and goals to build momentum and avoid costly detours.

Driven by Data and Biology

Every recommendation is grounded in GPCR biology, pharmacology, and real-world discovery insight.

Efficient Execution

I help streamline assay development, CRO oversight, and decision-making to keep momentum high.

Core Values

The foundation of every partnership I take on is one on focused, rigorous, and built for long-term success.

Scientific Integrity

I make decisions based on evidence, not assumptions.

Operational Discipline

I bring structure and consistency to every phase of discovery.

Collaborative Partnership

I work as an embedded partner, invested in your success.

Hi, I'm Yamina A. Berchiche

I know how complex is GPCR discovery, and small missteps slow everything down.

Assays underperform. CROs go off-track. Data piles up but doesn’t drive decisions.

That’s where I come in.

With over 20 years of experience in GPCR pharmacology across biotech, academia, and the nonprofit space, I bring both scientific depth and operational clarity to every engagement.

Whether it’s selecting the right CRO, building internal capabilities, or translating data into program decisions, I work as a strategic partner embedded in your team — helping you eliminate friction, align efforts, and move forward with confidence.

As the founder of Dr. GPCR, I also bring a broad perspective and trusted relationships across the field — connecting you with the insights and collaborators that accelerate progress.

Let's Talk Discovery

What Partners Say

Here’s what it’s like to work together — from people I’ve supported on both sides of the bench.

Anne Marie Quinn, CEO
Montana Molecular

Before working with Yamina, we were generating high-quality data across biotech programs but often navigating evolving expectations and goals from different stakeholders.

After partnering with her, communication became clearer, deliverables were better defined, and collaboration across teams ran more smoothly.

She helped streamline complex projects and made the CRO–client relationship more effective and productive.

Terry Kenakin, PhD
UNC Chappel Hill

Yamina brings scientific clarity, leadership, and precision execution to complex pharmacological programs.

I’ve worked with her on several discovery programs; in fragmented programs she bought clarity and decision points that produced much better candidate progression.

I am always delighted to work with Yamina as it always leads to an overall better and harmonious discovery program.

Murat Tunaboylu, CEO
Antiverse

Before working with Yamina, we were navigating challenging decisions around corporate and early discovery strategy.

After bringing her in, we made confident progress on a key program and gained clarity around where to focus next.

She helped bring teams together and created momentum across both science and execution
