Post-doc Position in Combinatorial Chemistry, Peptide Chemistry and Drug Development

1015, EPFL

Deadline:
30 June 2017
(application date has expired)
€70,000 to €80,000
Contact:
Christian Heinis

A post-doc position is available in the group of Prof. Christian Heinis at the EPFL in Lausanne (http://isic.epfl.ch/lppt). The primary focus of the research group is the development of therapeutics using innovative methods to generate and screen combinatorial libraries of (peptide) macrocycles.

The goal of the post-doc project is the development of (peptide) macrocycle therapeutics that can be administered by the oral route. This has been a longstanding goal of the pharmaceutical industry. The post-doctoral student will develop novel methods to synthesize and screen combinatorial libraries of macrocycles and apply them to generate macrocycle-based ligands of therapeutic targets.

The projects involves chemical reaction development, automated peptide synthesis, compound screening, ligand characterization and biological evaluation.

Applicants need to be highly motivated and able to lead a project independently. They should have an education in chemistry, biochemistry or a related subject.

Entrance date: May 2017 - December 2017

To apply for the positions, please send a letter of motivation, a CV and a list of references to Prof. Christian Heinis ([email protected]).
