The role will benchmark new approach methodologies (NAMs) against existing 2D and in vivo models, consolidate data across CRO partners, and bridge findings with in vivo PDX/mini-PDX studies to assess translational value.The postdoc will operate across Paris HQ and Dreux labs and collaborate with selected CROs to ensure robust methodology, reproducibility, and alignment with FDA/EMA guidance on alternative methods. Expected impact includes increased relevance of preclinical models, reduced animal use where scientifically justified, and improved decision-making for Ipsen’s pipeline.**WHAT -** **Main Responsibilities & Technical Competencies*** **Main Responsibilities**Innovate with 3D Models:* Develop and characterize organoid and spheroid models to better predict drug response and biomarker behavior either with external collaboration with CROs or in our internal lab facilities in DreuxBridge In Vitro and In Vivo:* Plan and conduct in vivo studies in CROs (PDX, mini-PDX) to validate translational potential and establish correlations with 3D models.Drive Scientific Excellence:* Design protocols, ensure data quality and analysis.* Document experimental protocols and results in compliance with Ipsen standards and quality; Record data in ELNs and write reports* Ensure compliance with ethical and regulatory standards, and deliver robust, reproducible data packages.* Stay up to date with emerging technologies and scientific advances in NAMs.Collaborate and Communicate:* Work closely with CROs, internal teams, and academic partners.
