Our main therapy areas are Cardiovascular, Renal, and Metabolism (CVRM) and Respiratory & Immunology (R&I). Positions can be based in Gothenburg, Sweden; Warsaw, Poland; Cambridge, UK; or Gaithersburg, US.

Responsibilities

Working within Data Science and AI, you will have access to state-of-the-art technology in an innovative environment, offering the scope to develop creative statistical ideas and approaches and apply them in your work.
