Job Description:
We seek a talented, collaborative inter-disciplinary scientist to catalyze computational analysis of high-dimensional tissue, cell and molecular profiling data. This individual will play a key scientific role leveraging innovative analysis strategies and a wide range of data sources to empower data-driven decisions alongside colleagues in Celgeneâs Research & Early Development organization. The role will align directly with the Celgene mission to improve therapeutic outcomes in complex diseases of unmet medical need. Applications focus on the identification and evaluation of novel therapeutic targets, with the mission to provide genetic rationale that reinforces target prioritization, indication selection, and precision medicine decisions across the R/ED organization, and particularly for our Immune & Inflammatory Disease Therapeutic Center of Excellence. Areas of particular focus include systems-level analysis of genetic variants for TIDVAL, and use of phenotypic immune signatures for stratification in key indications. Analysis scenarios include but not restricted to GWAS Meta-analyses, fine-mapping genetic variants, Mendelian randomization, proposing functional genomic validation & subsequent analyses, and modeling pharmacogenetics. Candidate is expected to lead internal and external analyses that integrate molecular profiling data from internal trials, multiple proprietary human cohorts, and curated public resources. Ability to direct external collaborations is highly desired. Demonstration of prior experience and success in highly collaborative environment a prerequisite. The position would suit an individual with strong scientific leadership potential and excellent communication and collaboration skills. Applications are encouraged from those looking to bridge the gap between academic and industrial research environments to impact delivery of truly innovative and life-changing therapies. Strong interest in the inter-disciplinary application of computational analysis methods to life sciences data is imperative, as is rich background and experience in bioinformatics and computational biology research. Responsibilities: Working in collaboration with computational, biological and clinical scientists across the Celgene Research and Early Development organization, responsibilities include but are not limited to:
