We announce the availability of a full time postdoctoral position to strengthen the Organic Synthesis Research Group (http://www.OS.ugent.be ). Successful candidates will be offered a one year sholarship at a competitive salary, as an employee of the Department of Organic and Macromolecular Chemistry at Ghent University in Belgium (http://www.orgchem.ugent.be ). The scholarship is renewable up to a maximum duration of 3 years in total.
You will develop and subsequently apply new stereoselective methods for the synthesis of poly- and carbocyclic compounds. You will help coordinate research efforts of PhD students in the organic synthesis research group, as well as work on your own individual research lines. Target compounds include medicinally relevant heterocyclic scaffolds as well as selected polycyclic natural products. As a particular focus in these projects, dearomative cycloadditions will be targeted that can transform common (hetero)aromatic scaffolds into more interesting sp3 -rich scaffolds.
Ghent University (UGent) is a leading European higher education institution since more than 200 years, with currently more than 47,000 students. The university employs more than 15,000 people, including >1,200 postdocs and >5,000 PhD students. The chemistry departments are the historical home of August Kekulé’s molecular structure for benzene, and currently encompass 20 dedicated research groups, forming an international community of more than 160 postdocs and PhD students.
Ghent is a vibrant city with a beautiful and lively historical center and cultural scene. Next to the 260,000 inhabitants, it also hosts 75,000 students and 320,000 cyclists on a daily basis.
