Purpose:

As a translational scientist in Precision Medicine Neuroscience bridges basic brain and nervous system research and clinical applications, focusing on developing biological and disease insights for neurological and psychiatric disorders.

Responsibilities:

Uncover neurobiological mechanisms of disease that elucidate patient subtypes; mechanisms of action, response, or resistance, and advance the development of novel interventions.

• Develop testable hypotheses related to neurobiological pathways, neuronal circuitry, cognitive or behavioral domains, or functional markers of disease or patient subtypes that will advance pipeline and disease area goals. Collaborate with PMed DAS leads and other functional leads, develop and execute operationally-sound approach and generate actionable outcomes.
• Shape and enhance efforts in human neuroscience, including promoting research synergies with other areas of R&D, aligned to disease area strategic goals.
  • Drive scientific strategy for translational biomarker development and discovery target validation / MOA projects.
  • Lead the design of clinically translational experiments in collaboration with PMED, clinical leads, or discovery research translational teams that achieve disease area strategic goals.
  • Establish external collaborations to augment internal translational efforts and expand experimental design options.
• Ensure quality and effectiveness of major project plans within precision medicine through sound design and early risk assessment.
• Advance clinical translational efforts through alignment with relevant stakeholders and leadership, and navigation of current and emerging business challenges to goal achievement.
• Communicate scientific expertise and learnings by proactively advising and knowledge-sharing with subordinates, peers, and senior management.

• Relevant biology, target validation, and biomarker research experience in the areas of neural circuits, functional domains in clinical sciences using clinical science approaches (e.g., cognitive, emotional, behavioral), liquid-based methods, or structural and functional imaging. Expert in one/at least one.
• Knowledge of the drug development process and how clinical translation fits within this.
• Proven leadership ability to direct, lead, and learn from cross-functional teams.
• Strong presentation skills required, with the ability to present data successfully to scientists and nonscientists.
• Tests new innovations and manages to reality.
