Associate Scientist II

Drug Discovery addresses key unmet medical needs through the identification and validation of therapeutic targets, generation of leads, and optimization of those leads into drug candidates for clinical evaluation. We are seeking a highly talented and motivated scientist to join our molecular screening and characterization group in the Target Enabling Technology area. This group focuses on assay development, optimization, and execution of in vitro biochemical and cell based high throughput screens and providing assay support for SAR and mechanistic studies for multiple therapeutic areas. The individual should have strong molecular biology/cell biology across various target classes and will work with multiple disease biology groups to develop, optimize, and execute novel assays in various disease models that can be utilized in a high-throughput screening format. In this role, he/she/they will work closely with project team members to implement in vitro screening strategies as part of the overall project plan. The candidate should play an active role in communicating and collaborating with scientists across AbbVie to advance projects through day-to-day interactions, presentation of da...
