What is pharmacodynamics?

A pharmacodynamics job involves studying how drugs affect the body, including their mechanisms of action, interactions with biological systems, and dose-response relationships. Professionals in this field analyze drug efficacy and safety, helping to optimize therapeutic treatments. They often work in pharmaceutical research, clinical trials, or regulatory agencies to assess new and existing drugs.

What are the typical responsibilities of a pharmacodynamics professional?

Professionals in pharmacodynamics are responsible for designing and conducting experiments to assess how drugs interact with biological systems, analyzing data to understand dose-response relationships, and preparing reports or publications based on their findings. They often collaborate closely with pharmacokinetics experts, clinical scientists, and regulatory teams to support drug development processes. Day-to-day work may involve lab-based research, statistical analysis, and contributing insight during multidisciplinary meetings. This role is vital for ensuring the safety and efficacy of new or existing pharmaceuticals and offers the opportunity to advance into senior research, clinical development, or regulatory affairs positions.

What skills and qualifications are needed for a pharmacodynamics professional?

To succeed in pharmacodynamics roles, you need a strong background in pharmacology, physiology, and biostatistics, typically supported by an advanced degree (PharmD, PhD, or MSc) in a related field. Familiarity with laboratory equipment, data analysis software (such as GraphPad Prism), and regulatory standards is crucial. Attention to detail, problem-solving skills, and effective communication are valuable soft skills in this position. These competencies enable accurate drug effect studies, effective teamwork, and successful contributions to pharmaceutical development.

Job description

Build Our Future Together

The Associate Director role involves supporting Pharmacokinetics (PK) and Pharmacokinetics/Pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) requirements for early-stage drug discovery and IND projects. Responsibilities include providing input and oversight for preclinical in vivo studies, coordinating with and influencing scientific teams conducting these studies, managing nonclinical Pharmacokinetics studies, analyzing and presenting PK/PD data to project teams and senior management, and preparing summary reports for regulatory submissions

When & where:

  • Work Location: Tarrytown, NY

  • Work model/flexibility: 4 days per week onsite

Discover your role:

  • Serving as a subject matter expert on Preclinical PK/PD within Discovery-stage project teams and guiding the design of preclinical PK/pharmacology studies.

  • Collaborating with various internal groups such as Therapeutic Proteins, Therapeutic Function Areas, Assay Development, Precision Medicine, Preclinical Operations, and PPK/PD management to develop and execute PK strategies for projects.

  • Effectively communicating project team queries, expectations, and timelines to management.

  • Conducting and reporting PK/PD analyses based on data from preclinical studies.

  • Working closely with Toxicology, Pathology, Clinical Pharmacology, and Quantitative Pharmacology teams within the Drug Safety and Pharmacometrics department to deliver data and regulatory documents supporting project progression.

  • Maintaining current knowledge of scientific literature, regulatory guidance, and best practices related to PK/PD.

This role requires:

  • PhD in Pharmacology, Pharmacokinetics, Biology/Molecular Biology, or Biochemistry with more than 8 to 10 years of relevant experience in biotech or pharma.

  • Deep theoretical and applied understanding of PK and PD to interpret the pharmacology and biology of therapeutic proteins. Experience with other modalities such as siRNA, CRISPR-based therapeutics, and cell therapies is highly beneficial.

  • Proven ability to plan, coordinate, lead PK and/or PK/PD studies, and analyze related data.

  • Familiarity with PK/PD (e.g., WinNonLin), data visualization and AI software and experience writing scientific reports and regulatory summaries.
