Associate Director, Non-Clinical Pharmacology - CVR

Design and implement study protocols for nonclinical pharmacology studies with a particular focus on PK/PD and efficacy studies in translational models of disease in Cardiovascular and Renal indications. Work closely with PK, Toxicology and Translational Science to integrate nonclinical pharmacology plans into a broader drug discovery plan to support effective project stage transitions and decision making. Collaborate with internal teams, academic collaborators or CROs to ensure high-quality, timely execution of pharmacology studies and organizational alignment on key Go/No Go criteria. Engage with and manage outside vendors and partners, including guidance and review of experiments conducted by third party vendors. Participate in project teams and provide expert input on nonclinical pharmacology strategy and execution. Prepare study reports, presentations, and present findings to internal stakeholders and external collaborators as needed. Contribute to regulatory documents for IND submission. Foster a culture of scientific excellence, psychological safety, innovation, and continuous growth.
