Postdoctoral position in synthetic chemistry 1532 views

Overview:

A 2-year postdoctoral position is available in organic synthesis at the Department of Chemistry, Technical University of Denmark. The opening is in the laboratory of Prof. Mads H. Clausen, a part of the Section for Organic and Inorganic Chemistry at DTU Chemistry.

About the position:

1. The research project will aim to develop new methodology for the formation of glycosidic linkages in a stereocontrolled manner.
2. The main responsibility of the position is to design, test and optimize new methods that has potential to form glycosidic linkages with better stereocontrol than the current state-of-the-art.
3. The position will involve literature reviews, brainstorming and synthetic validation of feasibility in the laboratory.
4. Undergraduate research projects will be integrated in the project and you are expected to interact with students and co-supervise those projects.
5. Additionally, some teaching responsibilities can be expected, mainly involving laboratory courses.

Qualification requirements:

• Applicants should have a PhD degree in organic chemistry with a strong background in experimental research.
• A strong interest in method development in organic synthesis and a desire to work in an interdisciplinary environment.
• A documented track record in synthetic chemistry.

How to Apply:

1. Applications must be submitted as one PDF file containing all materials to be given consideration.
