The heart of insitro's strategy is the combination of novel methods in machine learning, biology at scale and small molecule discovery that address important bottlenecks in the drug development pipeline.
We are searching for an outstanding physician scientist with expertise in the utilization of human clinical, biomarker and genetic data sets to help guide our neuroscience drug discovery strategy.
Reporting to our Chief Medical Officer, you will put together a vision for aligning our internal and partnered programs with patient clinical outcomes.
You will work on a collaborative team and serve as a bridge between the teams developing ML enabled in vitro cellular models, human genetics data, and human biomarker data to inform our neuroscience drug discovery strategy.
You will lead the strategy for using clinical data to inform our understanding of patient outcomes and disease progression, and for identifying clinically relevant patient subpopulations.
You will be an integral part of the neuroscience team and work with the executive team to develop a mature machine learning enabled neuroscience drug discovery strategy.
This role can be either onsite (3 days per week) in our South San Francisco office or hybrid (~one week per month) in the office.
You will join as the founding team of a biotech startup that has long-term stability due to significant funding, but yet is very much in formation.
