We are looking for a new Scientific Director to join Translation Research and help us identify biomarkers and generate high-quality biomarker data for guiding decision-making in research & development. If you have experience in implementing translational approaches in e.g., obesity, diabetes, kidney disease, NASH, cardiovascular disease, or Alzheimer’s disease then this might be just the right job for you.

The position offers exciting scientific opportunities and broad interactions with colleagues from across the drug discovery and development chain in Novo Nordisk.

About the department

In Translational Research, we are a commitment to identifying biomarkers and generating high-quality biomarker data to guide decision-making in research & development. Translational Research is part of Global Translation, an organisational area responsible for the application of translational methodologies across all the therapy areas in Novo Nordisk. Our ambitious goal is to ensure early, data-driven decision-making in clinical trials by application of biomarkers of target engagement, proof-of-mechanism, and precision medicine. Global Translation is part of Novo Nordisk´s Research & Early Development and located in Måløv, Greater Copenhagen. Click here to meet our colleagues and hear more about how we work in Global Translation.

Translational Research is a Vice President area that consists of two departments, Biomarker Assay Development and Biomarker Identification. At the Biomarker Assay Development department, we establish and qualify biomarker assays to support drug discovery, and we deliver biomarker data that are key for maturing the next generation of drugs. We provide guidance on the feasibility of biomarker platforms used in pre-clinical and clinical studies and enable our stakeholders to make informed decisions. The Biomarker Identification department is specialised in in vitro, in vivo, and omics-based methods and technologies for identification of new biomarkers and harbours facilities for mass spectrometry-based proteomics and peptidomics analysis. More recently the department expanded into doing molecular imaging analysis.
