Simulation Phd information

What is a Simulation PhD?

A Simulation PhD is a doctoral degree focused on the development, application, and analysis of simulation techniques across various fields such as engineering, physics, computer science, or healthcare. Students in this program conduct advanced research to create or improve models that simulate real-world processes or systems. The degree typically involves coursework, comprehensive exams, and an original dissertation contributing new knowledge to the field of simulation. Graduates often pursue careers in academia, research, industry, or government, where they apply simulation to solve complex problems.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Simulation PhD?

To thrive as a Simulation PhD, you need advanced expertise in simulation modeling, mathematics, and data analysis, usually supported by a doctoral degree in a relevant field such as engineering or computer science. Proficiency with technical tools like MATLAB, Simulink, Python, or specialized simulation software, along with experience in programming and statistical analysis, is essential. Strong problem-solving skills, critical thinking, and effective communication are crucial soft skills for collaborating with interdisciplinary teams and presenting complex results. These abilities are important to drive innovation, ensure accurate research outcomes, and translate simulation results into practical solutions.

What are the typical research collaboration opportunities available to a Simulation PhD within academia or industry?

Simulation PhD holders often work closely with multidisciplinary teams, including engineers, computer scientists, and domain experts, to develop and validate complex models. In academia, collaboration may involve joint research projects, co-authored publications, or participation in research consortia. In industry, Simulation PhDs might partner with product development teams, data analysts, or IT professionals to solve real-world problems and optimize processes. These collaborations not only enhance research impact but also provide valuable networking and career advancement opportunities.

Job description

Post-Doctoral Scientist – Molecular Pharmacology

Are you looking to make an impact in drug discovery at the frontier of G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) science? We are seeking an ambitious post-doctoral scientist with strong research and communication skills to contribute to a high-visibility research program in quantitative GPCR pharmacology.

In This Role
  • Conduct innovative molecular pharmacology studies to characterize the mechanisms of action of GPCR ligands across multiple receptor systems of therapeutic relevance.
  • Work with and be mentored by industry-leading molecular pharmacologists, structural biologists, computational scientists, and medicinal chemists.
  • Present findings at internal and external scientific meetings and publish extensively in high-quality peer‑reviewed journals.
Basic Qualifications
  • PhD in pharmacology, biochemistry, biophysics, molecular biology, or a closely related life science discipline (all completed requirements by October 2026).
  • Qualified applicants must be authorized to work in the United States on a full‑time basis. Lilly will not provide support for or sponsor work authorization or visas for this role.
Additional Skills & Preferences
  • Training or background in membrane receptor biology, receptor pharmacology, signal transduction, or quantitative pharmacology would be advantageous.
  • Self-directed and highly motivated, with a commitment to pursuing both technical excellence and publication goals.
  • Excellent communicator (oral and written) with a strong or developing publication record.
  • Proficient in data analysis, graphing, and scientific reporting (GraphPad Prism, Python, Excel, PyMOL, MOE).
  • Experience with ligand binding techniques (competition, saturation, kinetic assays) in live cell or membrane formats.
  • Experience with cell-based GPCR signaling assays, including cAMP, IP1, β‑arrestin recruitment, intracellular calcium measurement, or phosphoprotein measurement.
  • Familiarity with quantitative pharmacological modelling or kinetic simulation approaches.
  • Experience with mammalian cell culture and standard molecular biology techniques.
  • Understanding or practical experience of modern structural and computational biology approaches.
  • Interest in the mechanistic and theoretical foundations of receptor pharmacology.
Additional Information
  • This is an onsite position based in Indianapolis, Indiana.
  • This position is not permanent. It is a fixed‑term position up to 2 years with a possible 2‑year extension.
About Eli Lilly’s Postdoctoral Scientist Program

Postdoctoral scientists help us continue this pursuit. During your experience you will receive top industry research experience in a world‑class molecular pharmacology environment, mentoring by some of Lilly’s leading scientists in GPCR biology, structural pharmacology, and quantitative modelling, laboratory and professional training to further your scientific and career development, and collaboration and networking across a vibrant community of postdoctoral scientists and research colleagues.

Compensation and Benefits

Actual compensation will depend on a candidate’s education, experience, skills, and geographic location. The anticipated wage for this position is $58,000 – $123,200. Full‑time equivalent employees will also be eligible for a company bonus (depending, in part, on company and individual performance). Lilly offers a comprehensive benefit program, including eligibility to participate in a company‑sponsored 401(k); pension; vacation benefits; medical, dental, vision and prescription drug benefits; flexible benefits (e.g., healthcare and/or dependent day‑care flexible spending accounts); life insurance and death benefits; certain time off and leave of absence benefits; and well‑being benefits (e.g., employee assistance program, fitness benefits, and employee clubs and activities).
