Samara Freeman

Executive Director, Regulatory Affairs & Intellectual Property at Infinant Health

Dr. Freeman received a Ph.D. in gastrointestinal physiology from the University of Calgary before completing postdoctoral training at the University of California, Davis. While there, she became interested in how science and technology successfully create real-world value. She completed a certificate in business development from the Graduate school of Management at the University of California, Davis, to work at the forefront of the successful translation of research from science to market. With this new perspective, she became one of the co-founders of the Milk Bioactives Program and focused on building and managing multidisciplinary teams centered on the translation and commercialization of scientific discoveries from the program. Dr. Freeman then spent two years as a manager of a national public-private partnership (Foods for Health Ireland) in Ireland before returning to the University of California, Davis, as the Associate Director of Business Development at the Foods for Health Institute and became a co-founder of Infinant Health, to open the door to commercializing the Institute's pioneering technology. She now focuses full-time on the company as the Director of Intellectual Property and Regulatory Affairs to help commercialize the technology developed at the University of California, Davis.
