  • Medicinal Chemistry Scientist

The Medicinal Chemistry Scientist is responsible for designing and independently synthesizing novel molecules directed at one or more of our biological targets. He/She will be a key member of one or more of our multi-disciplinary drug discovery teams. As a member of such teams, the Scientist will be responsible for the identification and characterization of novel drug candidates and their advancement into clinical evaluation. This will require the development of a broad working knowledge of various scientific disciplines in addition to medicinal chemistry, including immunology, cancer biology, pharmacokinetics, drug metabolism, and toxicology, among others. The Scientist will integrate large amounts of data on previously synthesized molecules into the design of novel molecules anticipated to possess increasingly optimal biological profiles.

The ideal Scientist candidate will hold a Ph.D. in synthetic organic chemistry and may have conducted (although it is not a requirement) post-doctoral research on a synthetic or biological project. The successful candidate will have an excellent scientific publication record and national reputation as a leader in his/her chosen field. The role demands a highly goal-driven approach and the ability to focus on time-sensitive objectives.
