Opportunity: Postdoctoral Research Position - CHEMOINFORMATICS (#4001 8736 BC 10/11 3) @ Boehringer Ingelheim--Biberach, Germany
Submitted by Horst Mangold; posted on Monday, November 14, 2011
BACKGROUND
Computational Chemistry is a group within the Department of Lead Identification and Optimization Support. Members of the group interact closely with their colleagues in Medicinal Chemistry, Biology, as well as Structural Research, High-Throughput Screening, and Screening Logistics.
As members of interdisciplinary project teams they contribute to drug research from lead identification to late optimization phases.
We want to further strengthen our expertise in in-silico ADMET modelling to support our NCE research projects. Therefore a postdoctoral research position is available in the Computational Chemistry group at our research site in Biberach.
RESPONSIBILITIES
You will plan and implement a toolbox for generation, validation and updates of in-silico ADMET models to support lead identification and optimization programs.
Chemical interpretability of the generated models is a central aspect of your work. In this project, you will explore various data mining algorithms and apply modern chemoinformatic workflow tools.
REQUIREMENTS
You should have a PhD in Chemistry, Biology, Computer Sciences or a related discipline. A sound understanding of chemical structures as well as a strong theoretical and practical knowledge in data mining and computational modelling techniques are required.
You have an active interest in the analysis of correlations between structural motifs and ADMET properties. Preferred areas of expertise include chemoinformatics, (Q)SAR modelling, machine learning, database handling and statistical analysis. Knowledge in programming or scripting languages is expected.
Personally you are open to new challenges, reliable, flexible in mind and enjoy teamwork. Active interest in related scientific disciplines, good communication and presentation skills as well as fluent English, written and spoken, are mandatory.
COMPENSATION
We offer a competitive salary accompanied by a full range of benefits.
LOCALE
