About Immunai:
Immunai is an engineering-first platform company aiming to improve therapeutic decision-making throughout the drug discovery and development process. We are mapping the immune system at unprecedented scale and granularity and applying machine learning to this massive clinico-immune database, in order to generate novel insights into disease pathology for our partners - pharma companies and research institutes. We provide a comprehensive, end-to-end solution - from data generation and curation to therapeutics development, that continuously supports and validates the capabilities of our platform.
As drug development is becoming increasingly inefficient, our ultimate goal is to help bring breakthrough medicines to patients as quickly and successfully as possible.
Immunai is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
About the role:
As an In-Vivo Pharmacology Scientist at Immunai, you will design and execute in vivo experiments and coordinate in vivo studies to evaluate drug targets and drug candidates.
