Work Detail

・Using computational science technology to search for hit compounds that act on target molecules and promote drug discovery projects by efficiently developing hits into lead compounds ・Development and application of unique SBDD methods that combine experimental data with internal and external computational science technology (including molecular dynamics simulation and machine learning) ・Collaboration with experimental researchers to develop and apply methods that contribute to the realization of a rational drug discovery process for undruggable target molecules and various modalities (peptides, antibodies, functional molecules, etc.)

Ideal Profile

In addition to empathy with our corporate philosophy of hhc (Human Health Care), we are looking for human resources who have the following four elements. ・Awareness of ownership/ability to grasp the situation Someone who has never given up and has worked hard even in the face of difficulties, and who has always been aware of related situations and changes in the environment ・Ability to act Someone who has acted independently and achieved results beyond expectations, and who has never given up and has seen things through even in the face of difficulties ・Logical thinking ability Someone who has not been bound by the status quo and has presented essential criticism and questions, and has used ingenuity to propose new ideas ・Communication ability Someone who has listened carefully to what others say, understood their true intentions, and responded to them, and who can convey their own thoughts succinctly and clearly

What we especially look for in a PhD or postdoctoral fellow

During your research activities in the doctoral program, you will likely go through a lot of trial and error before your research produces the results you desire. In addition to the four elements mentioned above, we expect all doctoral students to have the ability to not give up after the first or second try, and to persevere until the end, even if those around you do not understand at first. We also expect all doctoral students to contribute to drug discovery and healthcare with this spirit of GRIT.
