Job description:
The Drug Metabolism and Pharmacokinetics (DMPK) Department at Genentech is seeking a highly motivated individual to support drug discovery projects focused on high throughput in vitro assays including but not limited to stability assays in various matrices (hepatocyte, extrahepatic fraction, and microbiome cultures) and plasma protein binding. Primary responsibilities include performing in vitro assay, run analytical instrumentation (LC-MS), data analysis, interpretation and report.

 

Required:

• Qualified candidates should possess a B.A./B.S or M.S degree in chemistry, microbiology, biological sciences, pharmacology or related discipline with 0-5 years of research experience. Liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) proficiency is required.
• Experience in ADME (absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion) assays including stability and plasma protein binding is preferred. Anaerobic chamber bacteria culture experience is an add-on. Although junior candidates with strong and relevant scientific backgrounds (DMPK/ADME sciences, biological sciences and microbiology) and remarkable publication records will also be considered.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills with ability to present data in group meetings are highly desirable.
• The successful candidate will be highly motivated and diligent, be able to work independently and collaboratively, and have excellent organizational and reporting skills. S/he will work closely with our established in vitro predictive ADME team in the DMPK department, performing routine and novel in vitro studies to support drug screening and lead molecule optimization in drug discovery.
