Job Description:
Neuroscience Physician Scientist, Psychiatry Job Description 10%
or more of the world's population is affected by psychiatric
illnesses such as depressive conditions, bipolar illness and
schizophrenia. There are no cures for these conditions, and current
treatments have limited benefits, though they are used widely due
to those benefits. There is major room for improvement in
psychiatry, and drug development in this field has slowed down
notably in the last two decades.
At Novartis, this major need is seen as an opportunity to make an
impact that might not happen otherwise. If you share this desire to
make an impact, we invite you to apply to join a psychiatry program
aimed not just at developing new drugs, but transforming the field
of psychiatry. We are looking for leaders who bring a creative
approach to new thinking in psychiatry, such as moving beyond DSM
definitions of indications, and going beyond symptomatic drug
efforts and towards disease modification.
We believe we need to challenge conventional drug discovery in
psychiatry and lead the profession in new directions.
The Translational Medicine (TM ) Discovery & Profiling (TMDP) group
is a team of physicians and clinical researchers who drive that
innovation science from discovery to the patient through the
selection, profiling and effective development of medicines.
In the role of Neuroscience-Psychiatry TM Expert you will develop
high value decision-strategies for the Translational Medicine
component of drug development projects through the proof-of-concept
phase.
Your main accountabilities will include but not be limited to:
--- Lead project teams that develop and implement strategies in
early drug discovery and profiling programs for First-in-Human
safety (phase 1) and clinical Proof of Concept efficacy (phase 2a)
studies.
--- Collaborate with preclinical research scientists to identify,
develop, and implement strategy for support of early drug discovery
objectives. This includes assessment of medical need, proposal of
clinical development pathways, and review of preclinical data for
clinical implications, and other relevant activities.
--- Lead project teams that provide investigational brochures (IB)
and other regulatory requirements for health authorities
--- Work closely with biomarker expert to develop and implement
compound related biomarker strategies in implementation.
--- Provide scientific expert assessments and support for
in-licensing opportunities, including due diligences
--- Drive success of late global drug development programs (phase
2b) when appropriate by developing and implementing strategies that
lead to clinical pharmacology, design of mechanistic studies and
profiling packages that meet regulatory requirements and support
differentiated and competitive drug labeling
Position can be located in Cambridge, MA or Basel, Switzerland EEO
