4 weeks ago
We are seeking a highly motivated and experienced Senior Scientist to join our Skeletal Muscle Biology department. As a key member of our team, you will be responsible for establishing, implementing, and utilizing new advanced human in vitro disease models in collaboration with fellow scientists across the organization.
Responsibilities
- Identify, mature, and progress new drug targets within type 2 diabetes and obesity with an emphasis on skeletal muscle biology, from design of in vitro experiments to validation of human relevance by assessing translational tools and exploring a target's putative mechanism of action.
- Participate in evaluating potential new targets and external opportunities from academia, biotech, or pharma.
- Collaborate with scientists and technicians throughout the organization to move projects forward across the value chain.
Requirements
- Ph.D. in biomedical sciences, human biology, or related disciplines with more than 2 years of relevant experience, preferably within the biotechnology or pharmaceutical industry.
- Proven scientific track-record and a thorough understanding of type 2 diabetes pathophysiology with in-depth knowledge of skeletal muscle biology and metabolism.
- Experience in target discovery and in vitro characterization and validation.
- Experience in advanced in vitro models, such as co-culture systems, organoids, organs-on-chip or micro-physiological models.
- Preferably experience with bioinformatics and data analysis.
- Fluency in English.
About the Department
The Skeletal Muscle Biology department is part of the Metabolic Disease Research area and focuses on skeletal muscle biology in relation to target identification, target validation, and pre-clinical characterization of new assets to become novel treatment options for patients living with type 2 diabetes or obesity.
We are working in an organ-centric and disease-agnostic manner to develop, characterize, and utilize in vitro tools to elucidate mode-of-action and profiling of novel molecules and biology for early evaluation of drug candidates. For this purpose, we apply state-of-the-art equipment and collaborate closely with our colleagues across GDD as well as with external collaborators.
Working at Novo Nordisk
