by Admin on 12-15-2022 at 3:36 pm

  • Internship
  • San Diego, CA
  • Applications have closed

What your role will be?

You will have access to our advanced modeling and machine learning algorithms and state of the art visualization, and use the BIOVIA Discovery Studio suite with Pipeline Pilot for the research.

As a Biologics Development Group post-doc, you will develop models to study protein design problems, such as antibody-antigen binding interfaces.

This work will expose you to the widely adopted scientific development platform, Pipeline Pilot, and the innovative research topics in biologics therapeutic design.

A peer-reviewed publication is desirable based on the outcome of the research.

The Challenges ahead

Develop a new algorithm for protein modeling and design.  Area of interests include, but are not limited to the following:

  • Scoring function and ML model to rank protein – protein docking poses
  • None-linear B-cell Epitope mapping
  • Antibody paratope mapping and clustering
  • Protein post-translational modification

Your Key Success Factors

  • Postdoctoral researcher or associate
  • Working experience with in silico antibody design
  • Working experience with protein-protein docking algorithms and scoring functions
  • Experience in object oriented programing using either C++, Java, or Python
  • Working experience in BIOVIA Pipeline Pilot is desirable
  • Experience in developing protein 3D and 3D-shape descriptors is desirable
  • Experience in applying machine learning algorithms to solve biological problems is desirable
  • Ability to work in a collaborative team, attention to detail, scientific curiosity, strong communication skills, and a desire to develop high quality software.
