In Informatics & Predictive Sciences (IPS) we conduct innovative computational research to inform decisionmaking across all stages of drug development. Our work spans computational and network biology machine/deep learning predictive modeling translational research and method development for the analysis and interpretation of biological data.

We are seeking a Computational Biologist to join IPS as a Scientist Translational IPS. The successful candidate will be part of a broad crossfunctional scientific community at the forefront of therapeutic innovation. This role requires computational expertise and a clear motivation to improve outcomes for patients.

The primary objective of the role is to dissect molecular complexity to better understand disease heterogeneity and enable more precise drug development.

Analytical work will focus on exploratory analysis of multiomics datasets (including WGS WES and bulk/singlecell/spatial RNAseq) and associated meta data derived from patient samples and exvivo models. Responsibilities include predictive modeling advanced data visualization and the delivery of impactful analytical insights to our research stakeholders.

In addition to internal collaborations the role includes engagement with the external scientific community through collaborations scientific publications and conference presentations.

This position is well suited to an individual with computational expertise paired with excellent problemsolving communication and collaboration skills. Applications are encouraged from candidates involved in innovative translational oncology research in academic clinical or industrial settings.

Key Responsibilities

• Apply computational approaches for patient stratification through the integration of multiomic datasets.
• Perform analyses to elucidate disease drivers and disease mechanisms in oncology.
• Perform analyses across molecular and multiomic datasets to support translational strategy.
• Support the identification of exvivo models representing key disease subtypes.
• Collaborate with colleagues across IPS to support the identification of therapeutic targets and to inform their development.
• Summarize analytical results and communicate conclusions to BMS decisionmaking bodies.

Qualifications

• PhD or MS with 2 years of experience in computational biology bioinformatics statistics or a related field; experience in the biotech or pharmaceutical industry is a plus.
• Strong experience with at least one highlevel programming language (e.g. R Python) for complex data analysis and reproducible research.
• Handson experience with nextgeneration sequencing data including WGS WES and RNAseq (bulk singlecell spatial).
• Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fastpaced multiproject environment.
• Strong analytical thinking problemsolving and collaboration skills.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills including data presentation and visualization.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills in English.
• Solid understanding of disease biology and molecular mechanisms particularly in oncology is a plus.
• Experience applying machinelearning and/or deep-learning methods is a plus.
