Every day is different because the landscape of research is unpredictable. While you generally have a direction, every project dictates a custom set of questions that have to be tackled. Because of this, every day involves communicating and strategizing with people to understand where we stand on projects and our options going forward. The world around us is continually changing and this impacts us too.
In a typical day, I spend a lot of time in lab running experiments on the various mass spectrometers I utilize for my projects. When I am not in the lab, I am in the office analyzing data, working on manuscripts or planning my next experiment based on the current results I have. There are also weekly meetings that I attend and I help to organize monthly meetings for the post-doctoral fellows at Amgen.
I manage a team of Amgen Neuroscience Discovery Research scientists dedicated to developing new therapeutics for ALS and Parkinson’s disease. As part of this, I set the scientific strategy for my team, and identify and foster collaborations with academic labs/start-up biotech companies to strengthen our pipeline of innovative therapies and technologies. I also play a role in recruiting the next generation of Amgen scientists.
I am a junior scientist working in the Pharmacokinetics & Drug Metabolism (PKDM) department at Amgen for just over a year now. On a normal day, I try to best allocate my time between performing experiments in the lab, analyzing data that I or others have generated that may inform the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of a candidate compound and participating in team meetings with other scientists across functions at Amgen to disseminate this knowledge to help move a program forward.
