The Position POSITION SUMMARY As a Senior DATA SCIENTIST within our Personalized HealthCare function you will work with meaningful data to generate impactful evidence and insights on our molecules/medicines and patients, that support R&D, advance scientific and medical knowledge, and enable personalized patient care and access.
You will collaborate with peers within the function and across the organization (e.g.
Medical Affairs, Market Access, Drug Safety, Clinical Science, affiliates) to develop evidence generation strategies, identify evidence gaps and data sources, design and execute studies, and implement analyses to address molecule and disease area questions.
The data will be varied in type (e.g.
patient-level clinical data, supplemented with deep patient data such as omics (e.g.
genomics, proteomic), imaging, digital). Source data will be diverse (e.g.
real-world data, including patient registries, electronic medical records, claims, biobanks, and clinical trials). The evidence and insights will be used to inform the research and development of our molecules, and support healthcare decisions by patients, physicians, health authorities, payers, and policy-makers.
You will also contribute to functional, cross-functional, enterprise-wide or external initiatives that shape our business and healthcare environments.
This will require a deep understanding of molecule and disease area strategies, healthcare environments, as well as strong scientific and technical data science expertise.
You will need strong strategic, collaboration and communication skills, as well as an entrepreneurial mindset, to transform the way we use data and analytics to develop and deliver medicines for our patients.
As a Senior Data Scientist, you will typically be responsible for a molecule/indication and partner with cross-functional teams and external partners with considerable independence.
