Translational Medicine Discovery & Profiling (TMDP) is a group of physicians and clinical researchers who drive innovative science from discovery to the patient through the selection, profiling, and early clinical development of medicines. Medical directors oversee phase 1 first-in-human (FiH) and phase 2 proof-of-concept (PoC) and dose range finding (DRF) studies in support for Phase 3 development. Medical directors in translational medicine are key and highly visible members of global cross-functional project teams that design and implement early research and discovery projects. Medical directors in translational medicine collaborate with colleagues in biology and chemistry to identify targets in diseases with significant unmet medical needs and provide input on likely clinical development pathways, design clinical development plans in collaboration with late phase development, draft clinical trial protocols and serve as medical leads for these trials.
