Neuroscience
Disorders of the brain and nervous system present many and varied challenges. Which is why Neuroscience at PPD offers such a broad array of opportunities to address them with clinical trials. We cover a wide variety of indications across nine pillars: Neuroinflammatory disorders (such as multiple sclerosis), neurodegenerative disorders (like Alzheimer’s Disease), epilepsy, movement disorders (including Parkinson’s Disease), pain, psychiatry (including depression), sleep, ophthalmology, and rare neuro indications. Be a part of this highly fascinating area and build a career that is engaging, meaningful, and impactful on a tremendous scale.
best-fit characteristics
Do you often find yourself wondering why people act the way they do? And are you committed to broadening your skills and education to learn some of the answers? You might be a good candidate for Neuroscience at PPD. If you’d like to find ways to prevent or treat problems affecting the brain, nervous system and human body, consider joining our team.
Your attributes and experience
To thrive within Neuroscience at PPD, you’ll need expertise with patient-reported outcomes and assessments because many of our protocol endpoints are based on subjective measures. In addition, your familiarity and working experience with centralized vendors such as imaging, biomarkers, and rater training will certainly be welcomed.
Skills you can attain here
Here is your opportunity to gain an understanding of the physiology of the brain and its complex functions. You’ll have the chance to participate in gene therapy and bio similar trials, rare disease trials such as ALS, Duchenne’s, Down’s Syndrome, and learn about innovations in patient recruitment such as Healthy Minds Registry for Alzheimer’s, and the 23 & me pilot for Parkinson’s disorder. In addition, you can take advantage of specialized training in specific, high-demand neuroscience indications, such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, MS, schizophrenia, and glaucoma. You’ll also have the chance to gain experience working on compounds from early engagement through to submissions, become a subject matter expert in a specific indication, and work across the PPD Family, including the Healthy Minds Registry with Synexus.
