hela Sverige Exciting opportunity to join a great team as Respiratory Safety Scientist in the Respiratory, Inflammation and Autoimmunity (RIA) Safety department at AstraZeneca's vibrant R&D site in Gothenburg, Sweden. Is it you we are looking for?
We are searching for a Respiratory Safety Scientist, who will combine experience in biology/toxicology/pharmacology, respiratory science and drug discovery with strong communication and interpersonal skills. You will progress drug candidates to deliver novel medicines to patients and communicate across levels of internal and external stakeholders.
Respiratory, Inflammation and Autoimmunity (RIA) Safety is a leading respiratory safety organization that develops and integrates innovative safety science with toxicology excellence to drive the design, selection and successful development of novel treatments for patients with respiratory disease. We are a diverse international department that comprises project toxicologists, discovery safety specialists, respiratory safety experts and experimental scientists.
As part of Clinical Pharmacology & Safety Sciences (CPSS), which contains all non-clinical safety functions that support the entire AstraZeneca Portfolio, we have a strong focus on talent development. You will be able to develop your skills, competences and scientific leadership by working together with leaders in investigative toxicology, regulatory toxicology, drug discovery and development, cell biology, and predictive safety science.
The role:
To be successful as our new Respiratory Safety Scientist at the RIA Safety department we believe that except your great skills as a scientist, you are a person who wants to contribute to an open, positive, collaborative working climate.
We also rely you to:
* Contribute to development and implement an industry-leading Respiratory / Lung safety strategy.
* Propose, develop and integrate novel in vitro safety assays and technologies to drive our predictive scientific capabilities for Respiratory Safety forward.
* Design and execute experimental strategies to predict, assess and mitigate target- and drug-related safety risks in drug discovery and development programs and develop mechanistic understanding behind (potential) safety concerns.
* Translate theoretical drug target safety assessments into concrete experimental plans and actions.
* Deliver experimental data that impact project decision making with the aim to develop molecules with the "Right Safety" profile.
* Promoting RIA Safety science through developing innovative research proposals, publications, building collaborative networks across AstraZeneca science units and with relevant external experts in order to enhance RIA Safety Science and Discovery capabilities and reputation.
Essential requirements:
* Excellent scientist, with a PhD in cell biology, molecular biology, toxicology, pharmacology, systems biology or related field, and a strong scientific track record.
* Experience with lung cell biology, respiratory science and immunology.
* Theoretical and practical knowledge of and experience with techniques and technologies relevant to in vitro systems, including cell culture and cell-based assay systems utilising cell lines and primary cells as well as utilizing relevant equipment for in vitro assay read-outs (e.g. high content imaging or -omics, etc).
* Experience with design and execution of in vitro experiments to determine the effects of therapeutics on biological systems, including data analysis.
* Extensive experience in generation and interpretation of high quality experimental data and translating scientific findings into applicable information.
* Understanding of the drug discovery process and/or a background in safety and risk assessment from the pharmaceutical industry is an advantage.
