Postdoc Position in Carbohydrate Chemistry, Denmark

Overview

A two-year Postdoc position in synthetic carbohydrate chemistry is available from January 1, 2011 at the Department of Chemistry, DTU. The position is funded by a grant from the Lundbeck Foundation.

Project

The aim of the project is to develop new methods for forming glycosidic linkages where the use of protecting groups is kept at a minimum. Today, oligosaccharide synthesis is severely hampered by the multiple steps that are necessary for manipulation of protecting groups on the glycosyl donor and the glycosyl acceptor. The project will exploit new methods for forming glycosidic bonds in a regioselective manner.

Qualifications

The successful candidate will hold a PhD in Synthetic Organic Chemistry (preferably involving carbohydrates). Relevant experience with oligosaccharide synthesis will be a distinct advantage.

We offer

We offer an interesting and challenging job in an international environment focusing on education, research, public-sector consultancy and innovation, which contribute to enhancing the economy and improving social welfare. We strive for academic excellence, collegial respect and freedom tempered by responsibility. The Technical University of Denmark (DTU) is a leading technical university in northern Europe and benchmarks with the best universities in the world.


Salary and appointment terms

The appointment terms of the Postdoc will be based on the collective agreement with the Confederation of Professional Associations. The allowance will be agreed upon with the relevant union.

The period of employment is 2 years.
