Are you an experienced scientist with expertise in pharmacokinetics, pharmacology and drug metabolism (DMPK)? Would you like to apply your expertise in a global company that follows the science and turn ideas into life changing medicines? Then you could be the new colleague we are looking for!
Our team is growing, and we are now looking for two motivated individuals with experience in Biologics and/or small molecule drug development and PKPD, to join us as a DMPK Project Leader, from candidate selection to registration and beyond.
