Description
The Certara Quantitative Systems Pharmacology (QSP) group is a global organization focused on the impactful application of QSP and mechanistic PKPD modeling and simulation in drug discovery and development. We are leading several first-of-its-kind QSP Consortia with more than 10 global pharmaceutical companies and have a rapidly expanding consultancy portfolio. Our QSP scientists work in close collaboration with other Certara staff and clients to generate and use state-of-the-art mechanistic models for decision making in pharmaceutical R&D. The models are designed in close dialogue with clients and developed with a view to creating user-friendly tools that will inform drug development programs from discovery to regulatory filing. We have unique capability to seamlessly integrate bespoke QSP models into the Simcyp® physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) platform.
Requirements
- Postdoctoral experience in systems modelling for drug discovery/ development teams.
- PhD (or equivalent) in life sciences, engineering, computer sciences, mathematics physics or equivalent.
- Good understanding of PKPD, pharmacology and biology and its application in drug discovery and development.
- Very familiar and outstanding hands-on expertise with Matlab, Neuron or other similar modelling software.
- Strong publication record (commensurate with level of experience).
