- Lead development and application of predictive models and agentic workflows to evaluate target tractability and safety.
- Design hypothesis-driven experiments and computational tests to validate target biology and mechanism of action.
- Integrate multimodal biological data such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and functional screens.
- Translate biological questions into clear computational and experimental plans and deliver documented pipelines.
- Provide timely, evidence-based recommendations to project teams for target prioritisation and go/no-go decisions.
- Mentor colleagues and promote best practices in model validation, reproducibility and transparent reporting.
