Sr. Principal Scientist, Membrane Protein Structural Biology
BMS encompasses a broad range of disciplines to enable a robust pipeline of drug candidates aimed at serious diseases.
Chemistry is a core capability in Small Molecule & Drug Discovery with innovative scientists working in medicinal chemistry, radiochemistry, analytical chemistry, and large-scale synthesis.
Within SMDD our Lead Discovery and Optimization (LDO) team is responsible for high throughput screening, compound storage and distribution, primary assays to support discovery programs, and compound profiling to explore drug liabilities in vitro.
LDO scientists discover and adopt cutting edge assay technologies that utilize state-of-the-art automation to drive speed and efficiency. Our Molecular Structure and Design team embraces novel approaches to computer-aided drug design, machine learning, and structural biology.The integration of these disciplines provides a seamless and highly interactive environment for discovery scientists to learn, develop, and innovate.
Working in partnership with our disease area experts in the Thematic Research Centers provides an exciting pathway to discover and deliver medicines to patients in need.
BMS is a leader in the discovery and development of novel therapies that exploit targeted protein degradation. Structural biology is critical to this work, and for other efforts across additional modalities and therapeutic areas.High-quality 3D structures of soluble proteins, protein complexes, and membrane proteins enable our scientists to understand mechanisms of action, design ligands or drug molecules, and make predictions about new biological targets for our drug discovery efforts.
The successful candidate will conduct research within a talented group of scientists focused on targeted protein degradation (Protein Homeostasis Structural Biology) but will work across functions and therapeutic areas to enable structural studies of key membrane proteins.
There is opportunity to have a real-time, high-value impact on the ongoing projects as well as chart the future of our research efforts by capitalizing on structural insights, for example, by uncovering mechanisms of action, defining binding modes, and identifying target degrons.
This scientist will interface with chemistry, biology, proteomics, and CADD scientists working across BMS.We are seeking a passionate scientist who strives to bring impactful membrane protein structural biology insights to bear on a burgeoning portfolio of targets, across therapeutic areas, with the goal of bringing novel therapies to patients.
