small molecules and possibly some aspects of chemical biology such as unnatural biopolymers (amino acids
or nucleic acids) or natural products.

IRIC’s primary goal is to better understand the biological processes that contribute to cancer and identify
ground-breaking avenues in the development of effective therapies. IRIC is located in a state-of-the-art

biologists who have extensive drug discovery experience in an industrial setting. A collegial, dynamic and
curiosity-driven research environment is a defining feature of the Institute.

We offer competitive recruitment packages commensurate with experience and qualifications, a research
