**About the Role**:
Internal Job Title: Discovery Postdoctoral Fellow
Position Location: Cambridge, MA, onsite
About the role:
Come join Novartis Biomedical Research as a Discovery Postdoctoral Fellow and contribute to tackling one of the most pressing challenges in the modern society: Neurodegenerative diseases. In this role you will blend multi-modal genomic, transcriptomic, high-content imaging and computational biology to both screen for and profile therapeutic targets with molecular and cellular resolution. Your goal is to develop a novel technology to advance the study of neurodegenerative disease and identify novel regulators of disease.
You will be part of our interdisciplinary unit, Neuroscience Targets and Technology. Robert Ihry and Young Don Kwak will serve as your mentors in Cambridge, MA.
Discovery Fellows have a unique opportunity to conduct innovative, interdisciplinary research and are expected to publish their results in the high-profile scientific journals. We collaborate across scientific and organizational boundaries, with a focus on powerful new technologies that have the potential to help produce therapeutic breakthroughs for patients. You will join our postdoctoral community for dedicated events, including the monthly postdoctoral seminars and our annual Research Day Symposium. All Fellows participate to our robust curriculum designed to develop scientific and professional skills. The postdoctoral term is up to 4 years.
As a Discovery Fellow, your key responsibilities will include:
- Working independently as well as with interdisciplinary teams
- Engaging the organization with your energy and enlist the support of our research teams
- Designing your project, modifying accordingly, and making the most or your precious time
- Implementing novel multi-modal technologies for investigating novel biomarkers, identifying and validating new targets, and gaining new insights into the underlying mechanisms of neurodegenerative diseases.
- Establishing yourself as an innovator through impactful publications
