Contribute your passion. Push the boundaries. Reimagine how we work.
Take advantage of your experience, employ digital innovation to actively boost the discovery and development of new medicines to assure sustainable growth of a globally leading and family-owned pharmaceutical company.
As Human Disease Genetics Expert you are accountable for generating genetic disease insight using large volumes of human data from biobanks and study cohorts, using leading edge computational methods to drive faster, improved decision making, ultimately developing impactful therapies for our patients. You are passionate about developing data-driven approaches that aim to transform the drug development methodology.
Embedded in BI’s growing Global Computational Biology and Digital Sciences Unit you will have an impact on reinventing R&D, thereby actively contributing to the discovery of breakthrough therapies that ultimately will improve the quality of human life.
Tasks & responsibilities
- The aim of this job is leading the exploration of population level genomics analysis using data of hundreds of thousands of individuals and bridging the connection with human disease.
- You develop and refine approaches to acquire, ingest and harmonize genomic data assets and link them to deep phenotype data.
- With your rich experience in statistic genetics workflows and practices, you analyze not only individual level data via WGS, WES, GWAS, but also summarize statistics from published datasets.
