Clinical Design Scientist – Clinical Design
Purpose
Clinical Design provides clinical program and trial design leadership and expertise within Eli Lilly – designing novel clinical programs to answer scientific questions, align with the corporate and asset strategies, and enable delivery. The value proposition is achieved by applying design excellence competencies and principles related to value-based research, data-driven decisions, and accelerated delivery. Clinical Design leverages internal and external information within and across therapeutic areas to provide modern, innovative solutions to Lilly’s drug development needs.
The purpose of the Clinical Design Scientist is to provide Medical and scientific leadership in the clinical program and trial design of assets approaching and/or primarily in Phases II to IV. In order to accomplish this, the Clinical Design Scientist must have a deep understanding of the biopharmaceutical industry, drug development process, the therapeutic area that is relevant for the programs in development, clinical research, and clinical program and study design.

The Clinical Design Scientist may be called upon to participate on additional items including but not limited to protocols, publications, regulatory interactions, internal executive and governance presentations, external key opinion leader interactions, medical outreach/advocacy, and industry conferences.
Primary Responsibilities
The primary responsibilities of the Clinical Design Scientist are focused on the design of Phase II to Phase IV clinical programs and studies within the therapeutic area. The core job responsibilities typically include those listed below as well as all other duties as assigned.

Be aware of current trends and projections for clinical research, practice, and access in the therapeutic area(s) relevant to the product.Engage appropriately with the asset teams and the business unit development teams on relevant external activities to have good understanding of their patients, medical and payer communities, and business strategy. Apply the above to the optionality recommended for clinical programs and trials and when supporting other medical-related areas as assigned.Shared Learning

Closely collaborate with asset teams and delivery teams to understand the impact of design on speed to protocol approval and study startup.
