The successful candidate will be an AstraZeneca Employee and will be located at one of two major AstraZeneca R&D sites: AstraZeneca's science center in Gaithersburg, Maryland, where MedImmune is located, or the AstraZeneca R&D site in Mölndal, Sweden.

AstraZeneca is a global, innovation-driven biopharmaceutical business that focuses on the discovery, development and commercialisation of small molecule and biologic prescription medicines across multiple therapy areas, including respiratory, inflammation and autoimmunity; cardiovascular and metabolic disease; oncology; neuroscience; and infection and vaccines, pioneering innovative research and exploring novel pathways across key therapeutic areas. MedImmune is the worldwide biologics research and development arm of AstraZeneca.

Description:

Epidemiologists at AstraZeneca support drug discovery and development as well as commercialization across AstraZeneca including MedImmune. Major activities include: critical appraisal and synthesis of relevant epidemiological literature; design, initiation, management, conduct, analysis, and reporting of epidemiological research projects; and development of RA/TA- and project-specific epidemiology strategy, including support to specialized areas (e.g., biomarker development, disease modeling, Health Economics & Outcomes Research). Epidemiologists interact with internal and external customers to ensure appropriate communication of results to stakeholders, including providing epidemiological support for responses to questions posed by regulatory authorities. They perform research on internally available datasets, and also initiate and conduct studies in collaboration with external research and academic groups. Epidemiologists support safety and clinical objectives and also work closely with commercial partners to maximize the potential of AstraZeneca's products and ensure support for appropriate target claims and messages. Finally, they ensure that timeframes are negotiated appropriately for the completion of tasks, and that the tasks are carried out as agreed and results presented effectively.

Progression in the Epidemiology career ladder at AstraZeneca requires an increasingly sophisticated understanding of drug discovery and development, clinical research and epidemiological methods, data sources, informatics tools and techniques, disease pathophysiology, risk management, the regulatory environment in the relevant therapeutic area, and factors that influence successful product differentiation and commercialization. More senior staff are also expected to educate colleagues in the principles and practice of epidemiology.

Please note this vacancy will be filled as an Associate Director, Epidemiology or Director, Epidemiology, depending on the experience level of the selected candidate.
