Organization Overview:
The Drug Delivery and New Product Innovation group within Lilly’s DDCS (Delivery and Device Connected Solutions) function studies physiological barriers across various routes of administration to apply and create novel patient centric drug delivery solutions. With a broad focus to develop injection device platforms and novel delivery devices to improve patient care, the group focuses in serving as a center of excellence in the following areas:
Injection physiology and new device ideation
Novel routes of administration/new modalities
Drug delivery of new modalities (such as nucleic acid therapeutics), monoclonal antibodies, synthetic peptides, and small molecules
Digital biomarkers and nanomedicine
We are seeking a highly motivated, skilled, and creative scientific/engineering post doc to contribute to projects that operate at the interface of devices, drug products, and physiology. As the Lilly molecule portfolio expands, our team will complement our molecule and formulation colleagues with engineering expertise to understand how devices and procedures can be designed to optimally deliver medicines across the transdermal interface. Our ideal teammate, motivated by curiosity, will explore and contribute to establishing first principles of delivery, shine as an inclusive member of a highly multi-disciplinary environment, and relentlessly pursue creative solutions for patients. They must be an effective collaborator with many different constituents including local team members, Lilly colleagues in Cambridge, external partners, and industrial and academic collaborators.

Connect across Lilly organizations to ensure device and delivery programs in transdermal are integrated with therapeutic areas and PRD development teams
Understand IP, freedom to operate, and competitive landscape in targeted areas of research
Identify, evaluate, and monitor external delivery technologies in the transdermal space, build business case, and drive appropriate partnerships
Ability to plan and execute flux studies, understanding processing of various skin types, knowledge of test required to understand barrier properties of skin,
Ability to understand structure and transport of molecule. In silico work exposure, role of permeation enhancers
Ability to carry out high throughput screening of transdermal flux studies and flux calculations.
Basic Requirements:

About Eli Lilly’s Postdoctoral Scientist Program
When it comes to research and development, our goal is to discover and deliver innovative medicines that make life better for people around the world. It’s challenging, expensive, and often filled with failure. But even when we fail, we advance medical science and understanding by learning more about diseases, biology, and chemistry – ultimately bringing new solutions one step closer to reality.
Over the course of our history, we have shed light on some of the toughest health care problems known to man – diabetes, heart disease, infectious diseases, neuroscience disorders, cancer, and more. We could not pursue this without our research and development team.
Postdoctoral scientists help us continue this pursuit. During your experience you will get:
Top industry research experience
Mentoring by some of Lilly’s top scientists
Laboratory and classroom training and education to further your development
Collaboration and networking across dozens of postdoctoral scientists and other researchers
