B.S. degree (required) in Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Data Science, Computer Science, Information Management or related field. Advanced degree (M.S./Ph.D. or equivalent experience preferred) in Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Systems Biology, Immunology or related field.
Position:
* 10-13 years experience within a pharmaceutical/biotech company, pharmaceutical information provider, or other relevant biomedical research environment. Demonstrated knowledge and understanding of the Life Sciences Healthcare industry and how it operates desirable.
* Solid knowledge of informatics tools and visualization/data mining packages (e.g. Spotfire, IPA, Metacore, ArrayStudio, R, MatLab, GEO, genome visualization packages/browsers) and aptitude for adapting to complex new analysis packages and using them to their full potential.
* Proficiency in common programming/scripting languages (e.g. SQL, R, Python, Perl, JAVA) and their application in biomedical research.
* Proven record of working with biomedical researchers to develop and apply informatics solutions, skills, and tools.
* First-hand experience in the analysis and interpretation of large, complex datasets. Familiarity with multiple R&D data types, especially as they relate to therapeutic area research.
* Development and delivery of formal and informal training and supporting materials to non-experts.
* Demonstrated successful experience working on complex, cross-functional project teams.
* Proven capacity to communicate effectively with technical and scientific colleagues alike, in formal presentations and small group meetings.
* Excellent written and oral communication skills.
Desirable:
* Demonstrated contributions in target discovery, indication discovery, and patient-disease stratification initiatives are highly desirable.
* Proven track record of publishing relevant bioinformatics or systems biology results in peer-reviewed journals.
* Direct experience in the development and implementation of large-scale biological databases and related activities; along with developing interactive web-based interfaces.
* Proficiency in Biostatistics.
* Experience developing rich visualizations for complex scientific data sets.
* Understanding of the regulatory requirements surrounding the handling and analysis of patient related information (GCDMP).
* Prior experience working in a therapeutic drug development area or antibody research setting.
* Demonstrated scientific knowledge of cell biology, molecular biology, or immunology, especially as it relates to biomedical research and development (targeted therapies, immunotherapies and stem cell therapies).
* Direct laboratory experience and working with biologists to design and analyze experiments is advantageous.Job Information Position Type: Bioinformatics Researcher or Computational Biologist Reference (Job ID number): 10594 Start Date: ASAP Duration: Full Time Status: openContact InformationMedImmune, LLC
