Organization Overview:

The Biotransformation group within Eli Lilly’s multidisciplinary DMPK organization is seeking a candidate to supervise and implement biotransformation studies in drug discovery and development. Responsibilities include conducting and overseeing in vivo and in vitro biotransformation investigations, interpreting results, and proposing/implementing experiments to address key mechanistic metabolism questions. Efficient communication with DMPK, project teams, and management is essential. Duties also involve guiding external (CRO) biotransformation studies, performing in-house non-routine laboratory work, and collaborating across DMPK disciplines. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience in in vivo and in vitro biotransformation studies, including mass spectrometry, structure identification, sample extraction, and analytical method development.

Responsibilities:

• Design, conduct and provide oversight (at CRO's) of “cold” and radiolabeled in vitro and in vivo biotransformation studies in discovery and development.

• Use mass spectrometry to assess in vitro and in vivo biotransformation liabilities to inform drug design.

• Design, conduct and guide critical problem-focused experiments involving sample extraction, separation techniques, LC/MS and radiometric metabolite profiling for the identification and quantification of drug candidates and metabolites from in vitro and in vivo biological matrices.

• Evaluate and implement innovative technologies and strategies to evolve biotransformation capabilities.

• Integrate data across teams to create a rational interpretation of drug metabolism/clearance.

• Work collaboratively in a fast-paced work environment collaborating both internally and externally (CRO’s).

• Author and review scientific reports and original scientific manuscripts.

• Effectively communicate interpretation of results across DMPK, to project teams and to management.

Basic Requirements:

• PhD in organic, medicinal, or analytical chemistry

• 5+ years of biotransformation experience.

Additional Skills/Preferences:

• Detailed understanding of organic chemistry as it relates to biotransformation reaction mechanisms.

• An understanding of regulatory guidances in biotransformation (ie. MIST, metabolite DDI, reactive metabolites).

• Experience supporting new modalities (i.e. ADC’s, peptides, RNA, siRNA).

• An understanding of clearance mechanisms, and enzymes involved in biotransformation.
