Relation Therapeutics overview
At Relation Therapeutics we pioneer approaches in large-scale machine learning and high-resolution biology to discover new drugs for patients with diseases of high unmet need.
One of the core problems in drug discovery is understanding the biological mechanisms underlying disease. Our team combines single-cell profiling, biobank-scale genetics, experimental functional genomics, and end-to-end machine learning in order to decode and modulate the fundamental causes of ill health. We aim to transform drug discovery and development.
At Relation, we are committed to building diverse and inclusive teams. We are an equal opportunities employer and do not discriminate on the grounds of gender, sexual orientation, marital or civil partner status, gender reassignment, race, colour, nationality, ethnic or national origin, religion or belief, disability or age. We strive to create an interdisciplinary workplace that cultivates innovation through collaboration, and we empower each of our team members to do their best work and develop to their highest potential.
By joining Relation, you will be part of an exceptionally talented team, you’ll have extraordinary leverage to push the field of drug discovery, and you’ll help us shape our culture and strategic direction. Ultimately, your impact will be felt in patients’ lives.
Opportunity
Join our leading-edge machine learning team as a Machine Learning Scientist and play a pivotal role in pioneering machine learning solutions for genetic data interpretation. Our team is at the forefront of developing experimentally validated machine learning methodologies, transforming biobank-scale genetics data (from genotyping arrays to whole genome sequence) into actionable disease risk genes for drug discovery. Leveraging data from external biobanks like the UK Biobank (UKB) and our proprietary Osteomics clinical trial, we're unlocking new frontiers in genetics.
The critical bottleneck in drug discovery remains poor understanding of the biological mechanisms underlying disease. As a result, we often don’t know why patients become sick and many drug candidates fail in trials while numerous patients with devastating diseases remain untreated. Relation delivers a radically different approach that can better understand the biology of disease and rationally discover new therapeutics.
The team you will become part of
As a Machine Learning Scientist at Relation, you'll be an integral part of our interdisciplinary team, collaborating with Data Scientists, Computational Biologists, Machine Learning Engineers, Data Engineers, and experimental scientists. Your role involves driving our strategic priorities in machine learning and contributing to the development of our proprietary technologies. This includes actively participating in the design and execution of cutting-edge machine learning projects, utilising the latest methods, and engineering best practices. Your expertise will span traditional ML methods as well as modern advancements like graph convolutional neural networks, graph attention networks, and transformers. Based at our wet / dry lab and headquarters in central London, you'll tackle the unique challenges presented by our large models and vast datasets.
In the role, you'll leverage your experience from high-performing ML research groups, adhering to our engineering standards and practices. Collaborating with senior group members, you'll engage in basic ML research and establish a presence in the external ML community through publications at major conferences (including NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, and AISTATS) and technical blogs. As an established NVIDIA partner and collaborator, we offer access to cutting-edge resources, supporting your efforts to drive innovation and grow.
Role Responsibilities
