Job Info


As part of the Precision Medicine team, this Associate Director will independently lead implementation of a biomarker strategic vision for development programs across one or more therapeutic focus areas (TFAs). In this role, they will design, develop, communicate at senior levels and operationally implement Precision Medicine strategies to support all relevant programs in early and late stage drug development for Cardiovascular and Metabolism related programs. Clinical technologies applied include biomarker assays, pharmacogenetic assessments, as well as other clinical and physiological testing devices. Such technologies will be applied towards the goals of: 1) enhancing our understanding of indications at a cellular and molecular level, 2) conducting novel biomarker discovery, 3) qualifying new biomarkers/approaches to expedite proof-of-concept for new drug candidates, 4) optimizing label claims for later stage candidates, and 5) enabling personalized medicine principles to be applied, as appropriate, in full development. The role requires in-depth knowledge of implementing precision medicine in clinical development, broad understanding of disparate biomarker technologies, and deep experience in biomarker assay development and validation in clinical drug development. The Associate Director will be responsible for conducting in-depth literature and technology reviews pertinent to all clinical development programs within the TFA, identifying and pulling in experts in multiple disease areas, navigating and supporting the logistical and regulatory factors pertaining to clinical technologies. The Associate Director will closely collaborate with various research colleagues, (e.g. Discovery Research, Molecular Profiling, DNA Core, Regeneron Genetics Center), colleagues within various departments in early and late development, clinical operations and colleagues from allied companies for collaborations. The Associate Director will participate on strategic project teams, clinical sub teams, and joint project teams as needed, and will prepare and make regular high-level presentations to development team leadership and senior management both to propose PM strategies and summarize outcomes of PM-driven research.
A day in the life of an Associate Director, Precision Medicine may include the following:

  • Program-level PM lead for implementation of program-level strategic vision that will broadly enable advances in target identification, indication selection, early indication of biological activity and patient stratification/selection within the assigned TFA(s)
  • Provide strategic leadership and influence cross-functional teams to prioritize and execute a compelling Precision Medicine vision within the TFA(s) that will broadly enable advances in target identification, indication selection, early indication of biological activity and patient stratification/selection
  • Collaborate with Discovery Research and product development teams within the TFA to facilitate appropriate incorporation of Precision Medicine strategies for molecules in discovery phases (leading to candidate molecule selection) or development
  • Represent Regeneron and work with colleagues from allied companies for all of the assigned TFA's programs covered within the alliance, to develop and implement Precision Medicine strategies for partnered alliances
  • Collaborate with clinical operations teams to implement exploratory sample collection and analyses in all clinical studies within the TFA
