About the role

  • State-of-the-art technologies that measure multiple cellular aspects of in-vitro biology are at the heart of insitro's efforts to accelerate drug development.
  • Computational biology is key to elucidating the relationship between these phenotypes and human disease and translating them into actionable outcomes.
  • We are looking for an expert in ML method development for biological data analysis, in domains such as network analysis, systems biology, graph-based modeling, causal structure learning, single cell omics, or imaging modalities.

Responsibilities

  • We rely on these data to develop ML-driven, predictive disease models that uncover underlying biologic state and elucidate critical drivers of disease.
  • These powerful models rely on extensive biological and computational infrastructure and allow insitro to advance novel targets and patient biomarkers, design therapeutics and inform clinical strategy. insitro is advancing a wholly owned and partnered pipeline of insights and therapeutics in neuroscience and metabolism.
  • Since launching in 2018, insitro has raised over $700 million from top tech, biotech and crossover investors, and from collaborations with pharmaceutical partners.
