Senior Director - South San Francisco, United States - Insitro
Description
The Opportunity
The heart of insitro's strategy is the combination of novel, cutting edge methods in machine learning, biology at scale and small molecule discovery that address key bottlenecks in the drug development pipeline.
To accomplish that, we are putting together an incredible team of discovery biologists and translational scientists who want to make a difference to this important problem.
In this leadership role, you will help build the neuroscience therapeutic area (TA), hire and manage staff.
You will report to the Head of Neuroscience and work a hybrid schedule on site 3 days/week at our headquarters in South San Francisco, CA.
Your primary responsibilities will include:
* contribute to insitro's strategy in neuroscience focusing on neurodegenerative disease
* work cross-functionally as a project team lead to design, experiments with large cohort human data, genome-wide association studies, high-throughput experimental assays and machine learning models to help deconvolute these biologies, stratify patients and identify drug targets
* lead efforts and partner with our statistical genetics and clinical machine learning teams to follow up on these targets with the goal of producing viable therapeutic interventions
* lead external collaborations with partners and with other organizations and individuals in efforts related to the neurosciences area.
You will join a growing biotech startup that has long-term stability due to significant funding, but yet is very much in formation.
You will work with a very experienced team, learn a broad range of skills, and help shape insitro's culture, strategic direction, and outcomes.
Join us, and help make a difference to patientsAbout You
