Publiceringsdatum2021-05-11Om tjänstenThe RIA Translational Science and Experimental Medicine department is an agile environment, with a culture that is science and patient-focused. Our mission is to understand disease mechanisms at the molecular level, identify the most effective target and the right patient population, and close the gap between bench science and bedside clinical practice.
A key role of Precision Medicine Discovery is to lead the human validation of our targets, identify Proof-of Mechanism (PoM) biomarkers and deliver precision medicine approach. Underpinned by a robust understanding of respiratory disease relevant pathways and drivers, the Senior scientist translational science is a key scientific role, building mechanistic understanding of the target and disease through innovative application of experimental methods and technologies. She/he is a laboratory-based scientist, with the critical accountabilities for identifying and enabling PoM biomarkers to demonstrate target engagement at First-Time-In-Man (FITM) and leading the pre-clinical target validation strategy from TSID. Working closely with the Biomarker Discovery Scientists, other decision making and exploratory biomarkers will be identified and developed for each project.
The role is laboratory based, requiring flexibility to ensure all translational aspects of the projects are supported in a timely fashion.
