This role is within an international scientific community dedicated to advancing in silico medicine worldwide. In silico medicine uses patient-specific computer modelling and simulation to support and improve all aspects of healthcare, from prevention, diagnosis and prognosis to treatment, as well as the design and development of biomedical products.
The position offers an opportunity to work at the interface of science, technology, healthcare, industry, regulation and European policy, and the broader society to engage directly with a diverse international stakeholder community. You will use your scientific background to help shape the policies, standards, strategies and frameworks that will support the responsible development and uptake of in silico medicine in research and clinical practice.
What you do
- Contribute to European Commission-funded projects, by co-writing new Research & Innovation project proposals and by managing timely delivery of project outcomes, tasks and reporting
- Represent the organization and EU projects at international conferences and healthcare/policy events
- Contribute to public consultations, policy documents, white papers and position papers
