The Position The Position... Genentech is inviting applications for a Computational Biologist to join the Department of Human Genetics as a Senior Scientist. Genentech has access to vast, and growing, repositories of genetic, genomic and clinical data, gathered from internal studies (including many of our trials), as well as collaborative and public external data sets. The Senior Scientist appointed to this position will play a pivotal role in developing and implementing analytical strategies that allow us to better integrate and interpret these data, delivering biological insights into disease pathophysiology that propel our translational goals, most obviously through the identification of novel therapeutic targets and biomarkers involved in disease onset and/or disease progression. • We are keen to attract candidates with skills and experience that position them to tackle key challenges in multimodal data integration as it relates to human biology. What strategies should we adopt for the effective and insightful integration of multimodal data at scale to deliver causal inference regarding disease pathogenesis? How can we do a better job of connecting the genetic signals that come from GWAS to the genes, pathways and processes through which they exert their effects on disease biology and outcomes? How can we optimize our capacity to integrate a diversity of data types, relevant to efficacy, safety and druggability, to prioritize the most promising targets for a given disease? To be successful, the person we seek will need to have a broad range of skills and expertise that embraces association analysis in genotype and sequence data, strong competence in the analysis of sequence-based molecular assay data (eg RNA-Seq), familiarity with approaches for the integration of genetic and molecular data, and a profound understanding of causal inference. They are also likely to be proficient in the use of high performance computing resources, and to have experience of implementing a range of AI/ML approaches. As well as developing and implementing a transformational research program in these areas, working closely with colleagues and mentors in human genetics, the appointee will be responsible for: • Extensive collaboration with colleagues across “Translational Genomics” who are responsible for the generation and analysis of data arising from our capabilities in molecular profiling, spatial analysis and perturbation assays • Extensive collaboration with colleagues in Neuroscience (and other Therapeutic Areas) who will take the biological insights generated and turn them into actionable hypotheses and lead molecules • Design and execution of targeted analyses to uncover novel therapeutic targets and biomarkers of disease heterogeneity, progression, and treatment response • Maintaining an excellent publication record • Presentation and communication of findings in cross-functional teams • Initiation of and participation in strategic external collaborations in pursuit of these goals. Genentech is committed to the development and delivery of precision medicines, which take individual variation as well as diagnosis into account in the delivery of health care. Because genetic makeup is a major component of individual variation, the work of the Human Genetics Department is a central pillar for achieving our vision of modern medicine, and the scientists in the Department are key contributors to making this happen. Major disease areas of interest to Genentech include a range of chronic inflammatory and neuro-degenerative conditions, as well as diverse cancers, and a number of ophthalmic and metabolic diseases. Though the principal focus of this position will be in Neuroscience, we expect the research findings to have broad relevance across all disease areas. Genentech provides an exceptional research environment composed of internationally recognized scientific leaders, as well as state of the art core facilities with cutting edge technologies and computational resources to support your research activities. We provide a highly collaborative community, and as such, you will interact closely with clinical development teams and other scientists in the areas of biomarkers, bioinformatics, and research discovery departments including Immunology, Neuroscience, Infectious Diseases, Cancer Immunotherapy, and Molecular Oncology. Qualified candidates will typically have the following attributes: • PhD training with a strong focus on human genetics, Computational Biology or a related field; • Substantial (typically at least 3-5y) experience in academia or industry (as a postdoc or equivalent role) engaged in computational biology research or a related field • A thorough understanding of biostatistics & statistical genetic methods • Extremely strong computational skills, with demonstrable competence in the management and analysis of large scale data, proficiency in high-level programming languages and statistical computing • An excellent record of scientific publications in top tier journals • Strong communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to present and explain findings to a diverse audience • Motivation and ability to succeed in a fast-paced, highly collaborative environment • A keen interest in applying computation to solve biological problems and achieve translational goals • A scientific background in neuroscience would be a plus, but is not essential • Experience in the application of AI/ML methods would be a major plus Who We Are A member of the Roche Group, Genentech has been at the forefront of the biotechnology industry for more than 40 years, using human genetic information to develop novel medicines for serious and life-threatening diseases. Genentech has multiple therapies on the market for cancer & other serious illnesses.
