Data Fellow information

What is a Data Fellow?

A Data Fellow is typically a professional engaged in a temporary, project-based role focused on data analysis, research, or data-driven decision-making within an organization. These positions are often offered through fellowships in academic, nonprofit, or public sector settings, giving fellows the opportunity to work on specific data projects, gain hands-on experience, and contribute to organizational goals. Data Fellows are expected to have skills in data collection, cleaning, analysis, and visualization, and may work on tasks such as building dashboards, conducting statistical analyses, or supporting data-driven policy decisions. The fellowship usually lasts for a fixed period, such as 6–12 months, and can be a stepping stone to more advanced data roles.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Data Fellow?

To thrive as a Data Fellow, you need strong analytical skills, proficiency in statistical analysis, and a background in data science, mathematics, or a related field. Familiarity with data analysis tools like Python, R, SQL, and visualization platforms such as Tableau is typically required, along with certifications in data science or analytics being advantageous. Critical thinking, problem-solving ability, and effective communication are essential soft skills for interpreting data and conveying insights to diverse stakeholders. These capabilities are crucial for extracting actionable information from complex datasets and supporting data-driven decision-making within organizations.

How does a Data Fellow typically collaborate with other teams within an organization?

Data Fellows often work closely with cross-functional teams such as engineering, product management, and operations to ensure data-driven decision-making. They are responsible for translating complex data findings into actionable insights that support business objectives. Effective collaboration involves frequent meetings, shared project management tools, and clear communication to align on goals and deliverables. This collaborative environment not only fosters skill development but also provides visibility into various aspects of the business, helping Data Fellows grow in their careers.

Research Opportunity

Thisroleaims to develop a multi-agent AI platform that enables scientists to efficiently access, analyze, and integrate knowledge from diverse biomedical data sources across the drug discovery and development continuum. The system combines specialized AI agents, domain-specific tools, and scientific data repositories toassistsubject matter experts in tasks such as biomarker discovery, human genetics interpretation, omics data analysis, literature synthesis, and translational evidence generation. Rather than replacing scientificexpertise, the platform is designed to augment decision-making by automating repetitive analytical tasks whilemaintaininga human-in-the-loop workflow.

This project focuses on operationalizing scientific AI capabilities within a centralized enterprise agent platform.Unlike general-purpose AI applications, biomedical research requires agents tooperateacross complex, heterogeneous data modalities while adhering to stringent governance and compliance requirements. The project addresses the technical and organizational challenges of integrating specialized AI agents, scientific workflows, and knowledge assets into a secure, interoperable, and scalable framework for drug discovery and development.

The position offers a unique opportunity to conduct impactful research while developing the skills necessary for a successful career in biomedical science.

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and integrate scientific AI agents into the enterprise agent platform.Adapt and operationalize domain-specific AI agents, workflows, and knowledge assets to support biomarker discovery, translational research, human genetics, and multi-omics analysis.

  • Drive novel translational medicine use cases.Identify, develop, and evaluate high-impact applications of multi-agent AI systems across translational medicine,leveragingdiverse biomedical data sources to address scientific and clinical research questions.

  • Enable adoption of enterprise multi-agent capabilities.Collaborate with platform and engineering teams to integrate scientific agents within existing enterprise frameworks, ensuring interoperability, scalability, and compliance with organizational standards.

  • Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders.Partner with scientists, data scientists, engineers, and platform teams to translate research needs into reusable AI-enabled workflows and scientific applications.

  • Establish evaluation and governance frameworks.Develop benchmarks, validation approaches, and best practices to assess scientific utility, reliability, and responsible deployment of AI agents in drug discovery and development.

Essential Requirements

  • PhD (or equivalent doctoral degree) in a relevant scientific discipline completed prior to the fellowship start date.The program is intended for scientistsimmediatelyfollowing their PhD training(PhD conferred in 2026 only).

  • Demonstrated record of scientific achievement (publications, presentations, patents, or equivalent)

  • Strong commitment to learning, innovation, and professional development

Desirable Requirements

  • Experience applying artificial intelligence, machine learning, computational biology, or data science methods to biomedical research, withdemonstratedinterest in translational medicine, drug discovery, or related domains.

  • Familiarity with complex biomedical data modalities (e.g., human genetics, multi-omics, clinical trial data, or biomedical literature) and an interest in developing AI-driven solutions within regulated research environments.

Why Join the Program?

The Novartis Biomedical Research Postdoctoral Fellowship Program is designed to develop the next generation of scientific leaders and power the future of medicine through rigorous research and immersive learning experiences, including the implementation of AI tools in biomedical research.

Postdoctoral Research Fellows benefit from:

  • Mentorship from accomplished scientific leaders and subject matter experts.

  • Access to advanced technologies, platforms, and research capabilities.

  • Collaboration across disciplines and organizational boundaries.

  • Participation in a global and diverse postdoctoral community.
