Organic Chemistry jobs

A 12-month appointment in the Département de Chimie Moléculaire, a joint CNRS–Université Grenoble Alpes laboratory, funded by ANR’s SANTAC project. Create sequence-controlled DNA amphiphiles using solid-phase synthesis and non-natural building blocks, then investigate their self-assembly and delivery of therapeutic nucleic acids in cell models. Work…

Develop bio-based organic solvents from renewable carbon for lithium- and sodium-ion battery electrolytes. Combine organic synthesis with NMR, FTIR, UV-visible spectroscopy, GC-MS and physical-property measurements, working with battery-performance researchers and industrial collaborators. The full-time appointment lasts two years with a possible one-year…

A twelve-month postdoctoral project beginning in January 2027 studies electroactive chiral materials derived from [7]helicene, quasi[8]circulenes and neutral helical radicals incorporating tetrathiafulvalene. Combining helical scaffolds with electron-donor units is intended to influence charge delocalization, molecular packing, conductivity and spin…

Three-year doctoral employment investigating microbial secondary metabolites as biofungicides. Combine chromatography, LC-MS, MALDI imaging and NMR with genome mining, microbial engineering and biosynthesis. The Sino-Danish Centre-supported project includes a required research stay at the Beijing Institute of Genomics and awards a double degree from DTU and…

The University of São Paulo's Institute of Chemistry seeks a postdoctoral fellow to investigate how chemistry mediates interactions between plants and herbivores, with particular emphasis on biotransformations in lepidopteran digestive systems. The position is part of a FAPESP Thematic Project on molecular diversity and the specificity of plant-herbivore…

Design, synthesise and purify compounds for potential clinical drug development in Amgen’s medicinal-chemistry group. The role includes difficult organic synthesis, route development, structure–activity relationships and structural analysis by NMR and mass spectrometry. Work may involve the Induced Proximity Platform and PROTAC approaches. This is an…

Develop ligands and functionalised sorbents for recovering gallium, germanium and other critical minerals from zinc-processing streams. Research spans organic synthesis, resin and polymer modification, liquid–liquid and solid–liquid separations, and analytical characterisation. The Nanomaterials Chemistry Group collaborates with spectroscopy, theory,…

Faculty appointment beginning 1 July 2027. Teach undergraduate organic chemistry lectures and laboratories, establish sustained research involving undergraduates, mentor students and contribute departmental and university service. The position emphasizes integrating research with undergraduate education. Application review begins on 15 November 2026 and…

RIKEN's Catalysis and Integrated Research Group is recruiting one postdoctoral researcher to develop radical fluoroalkylation reactions for the KAKENHI project Understanding the Distinct Reactivity of Fluorinated Radical Species and Developing Novel Molecular Transformations.
