Senior Scientist, Pharmacology
Summary/Scope
The Sr. Scientist, Pharmacology will provide scientific support to the discovery organization by providing knowledge and experience in in vivo proof of principle support and biomarker selection for small molecule target validation, specifically in the immunology/inflammation disease area. The pharmacologist will work with the Sr. Director of Preclinical Sciences to provide guidance and expertise to discovery teams, and will assure a quality product delivery for team decision making. The pharmacologist will also be required to identify outsourcing facilities (CROs) to facilitate in vivo pharmacology that is an area of that CRO’s expertise. The pharmacologist will need to communicate timing, budget and monitor the study conduct, as appropriate.
Responsibilities will include, but are not limited to, the following:
1.Design and conduct in vivo studies in rodents to establish PK/PD relationships, and in vivo proof of concept for target validation in an immunology/inflammation-focused discovery environment.
2.Identify CROs or other collaborations that could enable models or apply expertise that is not available in-house. Collaborate, monitor and report CRO based studies to discovery project teams.
3.Directly enable the conduct of in vivo studies, as well as the ability to supervise/mentor other scientists/associates in the pharmacology group.
4.Data collection in electronic notebook or in hardcopy laboratory notebooks is critical.
5.Serve as a Principal Investigator on IACUC protocols. Able to draft protocols and present clearly to IACUC committee.
6.Participates in discovery teams to provide expertise and knowledge from the pharmacology discipline….cont.
