The Protein Homeostasis Thematic Research Center (TRC) at BMS is a fundamental Oncology research engine delivering oncology and hematology therapeutics to patients. The TRC has a major focus on exploiting BMS’ expertise in protein degradation to discover and develop therapies aimed at tumor intrinsic vulnerabilities and mechanisms of resistance to existing cancer therapeutics. This focus on protein degradation allows us to attack protein classes that were previously deemed undruggable.
The Pharmacology group within the Protein Homeostasis TRC at BMS San Diego provides in vivo pharmacology support to discovery teams focused on developing small molecules and biologics for oncology and immune-oncology. As an integral part of discovery programs, the group supports lead identification through in vivo model screening and mechanism-of-action studies, develops and validates animal disease models, identifies pathway biomarkers, and establishes clinically relevant endpoints to assess efficacy. Collaboration with DMPK, Exploratory Toxicology, and Translational Development is central to our work, and we contribute preclinical data to inform clinical development plans.
Position Summary We are seeking a motivated Associate Scientist with broad experience in pharmacology and drug discovery for both small and large molecules. The successful candidate will work collaboratively in a multidisciplinary environment, taking responsibility for experiment design, planning, and execution. Key duties include interpreting and presenting in vivo data, conducting sample and endpoint analyses (ELISA, Western blot, Jess, qPCR, IHC), and preparing protocols and reports. The role requires independent work, technical expertise, and contributions to project decisions. Strong communication, self‑motivation, innovation, flexibility, and teamwork are essential.
Position Responsibilities
Develop disease models for oncology and immune‑oncology.
