Oncology Imaging Scientist
Women In Bio, Waltham, MA, United States
Overview
The Oncology Imaging Scientist is responsible for ensuring high‑quality imaging data is integrated into oncology clinical trials. The role supports standardized imaging practices, delivers on imaging strategy across study teams, and ensures imaging endpoints are robust, regulatory‑compliant, and enable confident decision‑making in drug development. The Oncology Imaging Team’s mission is to deliver imaging strategies that elevate trial quality and reliability, evolve with emerging methods and technologies, and provide the imaging expertise that drives progress across GSK’s oncology portfolio.
Key Responsibilities
Clinical Trial Support: Oversee and deliver imaging endpoints for early‑to‑registrational‑phase oncology clinical trials, ensuring high‑quality tumor imaging data.
Tumor CRF Data Quality Assurance: Integrate seamlessly with Oncology Clinical Development study teams as a subject matter expert, performing instream imaging CRF data review and query resolution in collaboration with data management, ensuring consistency in longitudinal tumor assessments according to standard criteria, e.g., RECIST 1.1.
Operational Excellence: Provide advice and recommendations on standardization of imaging techniques to study teams and Clinical Operations colleagues, ensuring proper implementation and oversight of imaging in oncology clinical trials.
Stakeholder Collaboration: Network within GSK’s matrix environment to identify and meet stakeholder needs, devise and present imaging strategies that improve drug development decision‑making to progress assets through the oncology pipeline.
Novel Imaging Endpoints: Evaluate and implement cutting‑edge imaging techniques such as AI, ML, GenAI/LLM, radiomic, and tumor growth kinetic methodologies.
Strategic Partnership: Work closely with cross‑functional study teams (e.g., Clinical, Operations, Data Management, Quality, Biostats, Regulatory) and advanced technology groups (AI/ML) to define and implement registrational imaging endpoint strategies and advanced analytical methods for robust characterization of tumor response in oncology trials.
External Relationships: Build and maintain relationships with key external imaging experts from industry, imaging Contract Research Organizations, and academic institutions to support oncology‑specific imaging needs, representing GSK in imaging forums and consortia.
Global Network: Maintain a state‑of‑the‑art knowledge of advances in oncology imaging and translate advanced imaging techniques from leading academic centers to multicenter settings, ensuring quality and consistency across sites.
Training and Documentation: Develop presentations and deliver training on study imaging requirements and oncology response criteria to study teams, Investigator Meetings, and CRA Trainings; provide standardized technical documentation tailored to tumor type and modality (protocol language, acquisition manuals, imaging charters).
Vendor Supervision: Lead GSK’s partnerships with best‑in‑class imaging CROs by establishing robust operational governance, standardized documentation, and efficient workflows to ensure timely execution and accurate delivery of high‑quality blinded independent central review imaging data.
Basic Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in a biomedical or imaging‑related field with 3+ years of experience.
Experience in clinical imaging using multiple radiological imaging modalities (CT, PET, MRI, scintigraphy) and tumor assessment criteria (RECIST 1.1, PCWG3, RANO, Lugano, etc.).
Experience with Clinical Trial design and statistics for imaging efficacy endpoints.
Experience in authoring scientific articles and clinical trial documents.
Preferred Qualifications
Medical, Master’s, or PhD degree with imaging experience in radiology, nuclear medicine, or drug development.
CRO or pharma experience in drug development.
Compensation and Benefits
This is a hybrid role: 2‑3 days per week in the office. The annual base salary for new hires at this position ranges from $123,000 to $205,000 based on location (Cambridge, MA; Waltham, MA; Rockville, MD; or San Francisco, CA). In addition, this position offers an annual bonus and eligibility to participate in a share‑based long‑term incentive program. Benefits include health care and other insurance benefits for employees and families, retirement benefits, paid holidays, vacation, and paid caregiver/parental and medical leave.
