Key Responsibilities:
* Contribute to overall compound development via application of
quantitative methods to integrate knowledge of PK, PD, patient characteristics,
disease states, and drug-drug interactions to optimize dose selection, dosage
regimens and study designs throughout drug development.
* Translate quantitative knowledge into strategic opportunities with key
stake holders to drive development along the model-based drug development
principles.
* Collaborate with pharmacometric leaders on modeling and simulation
activities in drug development programs. Perform and/or liaise for modeling and
simulation analysis of preclinical and/or clinical data.
* Execute scientifically robust and efficient clinical pharmacology
strategies for NME and/or development candidates.
* Applies the understanding of (1) the impact of intra- and inter-subject
variability in physiology and/or pathology, concomitant medication use, and
biopharmaceutics, on PK and PK/PD, and (2) requirements for the clinical
pharmacology regulatory submission packages and submission processes.
* Represent clinical pharmacology function in multi-disciplinary clinical
teams (depending on experience).
* Represent Clinical Pharmacology Function in the regulatory meetings (e.g.

* Drug development experience in Immunology (preferred) and/or other
Therapeutic Areas.
* Have experience analyzing data describing biological or PK/PD systems,
preferably using a non-linear mixed effects modeling approach.
* Understanding of model-based drug development, biostatistics principles
and modelling tools (e.g., NONMEM, R, Python, Phoenix NLME, SimCYP,
Gastro-Plus, MATLAB, SAS, or similar software) and the ability to apply these
tools to enable rational and efficient drug development
* Good written and communication skills.
