Resumo da oferta

Lilly in the United States is seeking a senior scientific leader to explore the biology of gut-brain axis hormones at the intersection of metabolism, neurobiology and immunology. You will develop and execute this strategy, spanning both internal discovery workstreams and external scientific collaborations.

The successful candidate is a hands‑on scientific leader who frames central biological questions, generates data across in‑vitro, in‑vivo, and translational systems, and translates mechanistic

Qualificações

• Ph.D. and relevant post‑doctoral training in immunology, neuroscience, immunometabolism, or related field.
• 8+ years of relevant experience in pharmaceutical and/or biotechnology companies.
• Experience in gut‑brain axis hormones and peptides biology and the biology of chronic immunologic diseases, as demonstrated through peer reviewed manuscripts and/or patents.

Responsabilidades

• Develop the scientific strategy exploring the biological and mechanistic links between gut‑brain axis hormones and peptides and metabolism, neurobiology, and immunology.
• Build and lead the scientific team to execute that strategy, including leadership of a matrixed, multi‑disciplinary team prosecuting this science at the bench.
• Identify and manage key external collaborations that support the scientific strategy. Provide the scientific and operational leadership to run these partnerships, ensuring lab‑based studies deliver on their scientific objectives and stay aligned with immunology strategy and portfolio needs throughout the life of the collaboration.
• Evaluate external opportunities, using scientific breadth and depth to vet the science and strategic fit of potential partnerships alongside External Innovation colleagues, with a focus on immunometabolic health and immunology.
• Partner across research and development groups to maintain regular communication of these discovery biology activities with translational and clinical development teams.
• Contribute as a member of the Immunology Discovery Research Lead team by helping shape the scientific portfolio and develop talent by providing thoughtful review of projects across the entire Immunology portfolio (not only immunometabolic health) and identifying development opportunities aligned with scientists' interests.
