Director, Quantitative Systems Pharmacology

About the Role

At Eisai , satisfying unmet medical needs and increasing the benefits healthcare provides to patients, their families, and caregivers is Eisai ’s human health care (hhc) mission. We’re a growing pharmaceutical company that is breaking through in neurology and oncology, with a strong emphasis on research and development. Our history includes the development of many innovative medicines, notably the discovery of the world's most widely-used treatment for Alzheimer’s disease. As we continue to expand, we are seeking highly-motivated individuals who want to work in a fast-paced environment and make a difference.If this is your profile, we want to hear from you. The Director of Quantitative Systems Pharmacology (QSP) will lead the development and implementation of mechanistic knowledge of biology integrated into mathematical models that support drug discovery and clinical development. The Director of QSP will provide scientific leadership, define QSP strategies, and collaborate across Eisai ’s Deep Human Biology Learning (DHBL) project teams to translate existing knowledge and data into actionable QSP models. These models will provide functional understanding of complex nonlinear pathophysiological systems and their interactions, will allow scientists to explore system dynamics and biological hypotheses, will yield insight into responses to different pharmacological approaches to modulating biological systems, and will provide mechanistic insights to inform Eisai ’s R&D decisions (for example FIH translation, dose selection, candidate selection, selection of target population, and combination strategies). This Director QSP position is essential for supporting the increasing expectations of team leaders and global regulators of applying QSP methodologies to continuously improve the conceptual and mechanistic understanding of the relations among drug exposure, efficacy, and safety. Essential Functions: Develop, implement, and apply QSP models to understand diseases, the
