Senior​/Principal Scientist, MPN Biology, Translational Sciences

Job Summary

Pharma Essentia Innovation Research Center (PIRC) is seeking a highly motivated and experienced myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) biologist to join our Translational Sciences team as a Senior or Principal Scientist. PEC is a leader in the MPN field, and in this role you will contribute to the development of first-in-class and best-in-class therapeutics, including cytokines, antibodies, antibody-drug-conjugates, cell-based therapies and small molecules.

The successful candidate will contribute to the design, execution, and interpretation of cell-based, in vivo pharmacology, translational biomarker and mechanism of action (MOA) studies to drive novel MPN therapeutics from project conception to late discovery and into first in human clinical trials. In this position, you will utilize your expertise in MPN stem cell biology, driver mutation signaling pathways, in vivo MPN mouse models and biomarker discovery to guide proof-of-concept (POC) studies, drug development and biomarker strategies, optimize dosing regimens, and ensure the safety and efficacy of investigational drugs.

You will also contribute to translational activities aimed at maximizing the potential of BESREMI, Pharma Essentia’s marketed drug for the treatment of MPNs. These efforts include indication expansion, novel combinations, and refining/improving biomarker approaches to guide dosing and patient selection. Additionally, you will provide scientific leadership, mentorship, and cross-functional collaboration within the Translational Sciences team and across other departments.
