• Work with Insight from Data and Computational & Modelling Science groups to help create knowledge databases to develop reports using retrospective and competitor information and establish relational rules for toxicity.
• Advance our knowledge of the enzymes and their impact on preclinical-clinical translation (species differences) and prediction of clinical variability in patient populations (polymorphisms, impact of disease).
• Evaluate/direct potential innovative drug metabolism/biotransformation research areas and/or apply innovative solutions to project problems, including design of bespoke studies and application of differential development.
• Contextualize and extrapolate drug metabolism/biotransformation findings and discuss data with program/project teams, internal advisory groups as well as Senior Leaders & Regulators.
