About this position
This research opportunity is offered by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER), in Silver Spring, Maryland. The project is centered on pharmacodynamic biomarkers and their growing role in drug development and regulatory decision-making.
The selected participant will examine how pharmacodynamic biomarkers are being used in the evaluation of new drugs, including target engagement, dose selection, patient selection, safety monitoring, exposure-response analysis, and biomarkers used as endpoints. The work also addresses recurring barriers such as uncertain clinical relevance, biological variability, and bioanalytical challenges.
Working under the guidance of mentor Anuradha Ramamoorthy, the participant will analyze trends in new drug approvals and identify opportunities to strengthen and expand biomarker-based evidence generation. The opportunity is designed to build skills in regulatory science, data review, and assessment of biomarker-based information within the FDA environment.
The FDA/CDER setting provides a research experience connected to real-world regulatory evaluation of medicines, including over-the-counter and prescription drugs, biological therapeutics, and generic drugs.
