Postdoctoral Research Fellow position within organic synthesis/medicinal chemistry - Bergen, Norge - University of Bergen
Beskrivelse
About the project/work tasks :The subject area for the position is synthetic organic chemistry/medicinal chemistry. The aim of the project is to synthesize compounds with antimicrobial activity that can decompose under light into fragments that do not have antimicrobial activity. The project is a continuation of earlier work based on compounds containing our ethanolamine chemistry. Method development and chemical analysis will also be a central part of the project to, among other things, map photochemical degradation products. The person that will be hired will be involved in teaching duties at the department.
Qualifications and personal qualities:
Personal and relational qualities will be emphasized. Research experience, ambitions and potential will also count when evaluating the candidates.
Special requirements for the position
The University of Bergen is subjected to the regulation for export control system. The regulation will be applied in the processing of the applications.
