Post Doctoral Medical Fellow - Digital Health, Clinical Development, Clinical Research

Description The gBDS /Med Data/AI -- Boehringer Ingelheim is seeking a postdoctoral research fellow to help leverage scientifically rigorous digital health technologies that accelerate clinical development across therapeutic areas. The fellow will drive innovation in digital endpoints, remote monitoring technologies, and multimodal data analytics to enhance multiple facets of clinical trials—from identifying and recruiting suitable patients to capturing meaningful real-world outcomes such as quality of life, functional capacity, and disease progression. This research-focused role emphasizes translating digital health innovations into, deployable solutions that improve trial outcomes by better understanding patients’ journeys in the real-world setting. Work will be anchored in Boehringer Ingelheim’s core therapeutic areas — e.g. respiratory, cardiovascular-renal-metabolic, oncology, CNS — with digital measures selected/evaluated in the context of clinically meaningful endpoints for those disease areas. As an employee of Boehringer Ingelheim, you will actively contribute to the discovery, development and delivery of our products to our patients and customers. Our global presence provides opportunity for all employees to collaborate internationally, offering visibility and opportunity to directly contribute to the companies´ success. We realize that our strength and competitive advantage lie with our people.
