Vertex Fellows and Physician Investigator Programs

November 21, 2023 by Candace Cain Leave a Comment

The Vertex Fellows Program is a one-year development program for outstanding early-career scientists to learn about the industry. Our Fellows are embedded in our research teams, receive mentorship from senior leaders and learn – both formally and experientially – about the science and business of drug discovery and development, providing a unique opportunity to explore while contributing to real-world projects at Vertex. This is not a hiring program. 
Vertex Fellows Information and Link to Apply
 
The VPI Program is a 2-year, rotation-based, hiring program for physician-scientists committed to making a lasting impact in the industry. Each Physician Investigator will receive mentorship from senior leaders at Vertex and be embedded in existing teams for 4 six-month rotations, which include drug discovery, translational medicine, clinical development, commercial operations, and business development. Upon completion of their 2-year training, participants can advance into a mutually agreed upon permanent role at Vertex.
