The Computational Sciences Centre of Excellence is a global organisation enabling Roche’s Research and Early Development units to develop novel therapeutics that will have an impact on patient lives. Within the Computational Sciences Centre of Excellence, the Computational Biology and Medicine department focuses on furthering our understanding of disease pathogenesis, patient populations, and target biology by having access to the largest Pharma R datasets in the world. In partnership with our scientists across Roche, we create better medicines by augmenting every part of R through our data-driven culture.
The Opportunity:
We are seeking a highly motivated computational scientist to join our Neuroscience and Rare Diseases therapeutic area. In this role, you will be a key member of an interdisciplinary team dedicated to advancing our understanding of neurological diseases. As Roche continues to build and advance its capabilities in computational and data-driven R, this position offers an integral role in our strategy. You will identify novel therapeutic targets and biomarkers by analyzing high-dimensional data. You will collaborate closely with leading laboratory scientists and clinicians, contributing directly to a pipeline of innovative medicines for patients with neurodegenerative and neuroinflammation diseases. You will also be part of the wider Computational Biology and Medicine unit of the Computational Sciences Centre of Excellence drawing on the shared experience and expertise of colleagues globally.
