    "description_html": "<p><strong>About</strong> <strong>GondolaBio</strong>&nbsp;</p><p>GondolaBio is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing breakthrough therapeutics for genetic diseases. GondolaBio is an independent sister company to BridgeBio, originally carved out in 2024 after securing $300M in private financing from external investors. GondolaBio aims to leverage cutting-edge biological research to discover, create, test, and deliver transformative medicines to treat patients who suffer from genetic diseases.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Who You Are</strong>&nbsp;</p><p>You are an experienced DMPK and clinical pharmacology scientist with specialized expertise in antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) therapeutics. You bring deep mechanistic understanding of ASO disposition, spanning intrathecal delivery, CNS distribution, tissue partitioning, and target engagement pharmacology. You are equally comfortable managing studies, at the modeling workstation, and in regulatory meetings, and you are energized by translating PK/PD insights into actionable dose and development decisions.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Key Responsibilities</strong>&nbsp;</p><ul><li><strong>ASO PK/PD and DMPK strategy:</strong> Serve as the lead DMPK/Clinical Pharmacology scientist for GondolaBio's intrathecally delivered ASO programs. Define and execute the PK/PD strategy from nonclinical characterization through FIH and early clinical dose optimization, integrating CSF, plasma, and tissue PK data.&nbsp;</li><li><strong>Intrathecal delivery</strong> <strong>expertise:</strong> Drive deep scientific understanding of IT-ASO disposition including CSF dynamics, spinal and brain distribution, rostral-caudal gradients, and tissue accumulation. Identify and address key uncertainties in CNS PK that inform safe and efficacious dose selection and dosing interval.&nbsp;</li><li><strong>Nonclinical-to-clinical translation:</strong> Lead cross-species PK/PD scaling to support IND-enabling work and human dose projections. Partner closely with Translational and Discovery teams to design and interpret nonclinical PK and PD studies using relevant animal models and CSF biomarkers.&nbsp;</li><li><strong>Clinical pharmacology and PK/PD modeling:</strong> Develop population PK models and PK/PD frameworks for ASO programs to characterize variability, support exposure-response analyses, and inform dose recommendations across patient subgroups (e.g., pediatric vs. adult, disease severity). Contribute to modeling deliverables for regulatory submissions.&nbsp;</li><li><strong>Biomarker and target engagement analytics:</strong> Collaborate with Biomarker, Translational, and Clinical teams to integrate PD endpoints (e.g., target mRNA/protein levels in CSF or accessible tissue) into PK/PD models and support Go/No-Go decision frameworks.&nbsp;</li></ul>",
