Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark H. Lundbeck AS Full time

Do you have a passion for LC-MS and like to work with "state of the art" technologies? Do you thrive with scientific challenges? Then you may be our new colleague.

Your new role – why is this a great opportunity?
You will be responsible for planning, conducting, and reporting of in vitro and in vivo ADME studies, including metabolite profiling and metabolite identification in animal species and humans. The studies will be conducted in our in-house laboratories using state-of-the-art LC-MS (including OrbiTrap and MALDI-imaging instruments) and radiochemical detection. As we conduct studies externally you will work in close collaboration with Contract Research Organisations (CRO's), who are performing studies on behalf of Lundbeck.

You will also be responsible for evaluating whether human metabolites have been adequately safety tested.

You will represent the Metabolism group in project teams ensuring progress of development of new innovative medicines and driving the science within the Metabolism group together with your colleagues.

Your future team
The Department of Drug Metabolism is part of the Drug ADME Research Division within Non-Clinical Safety Research. Non-Clinical Safety Research is responsible for the safety evaluation of novel drug candidates for the treatment of diseases within the central nervous system. The Department of Drug Metabolism is responsible for providing non-clinical and human ADME data, and data on drug-drug interaction potential for worldwide registration of new innovative medicines. We are a group of 12 scientists and technicians in total divided into two teams (Drug-drug interaction and Metabolism). The position is based in Valby, Copenhagen.
