Postdoctoral positions in Dr. Tomáš Kraus group

The team of targeted research lead by Dr. Tomáš Kraus opens 2 positions for postdoctoral fellows starting August 2014. The project solved by the team aims at the development of molecular transporters that are capable of delivery of organic compounds (anions in particular) across cell membranes using supramolecular principles. Candidates should have strong background and completed Ph.D. studies in the field of organic chemistry. Broad interests in multidisciplinary approach (organic and physical chemistry, biochemistry, cell biology) and strong motivation will be highly appreciated. The applicant should send an e-mail containing:

a) a letter of motivation
b) CV
c) names of two persons that are willing to write letters of recommendation to kraus@uochb.cas.cz

The chosen candidate will be responsible for independent research work including organic synthesis, analytical characterization of products, physicochemical and biochemical studies.

Ph.D. positions open to EU students

(Czech students cannot apply due to funding restrictions)

2 × Ph.D. positions in the European training network FLUOR21 (FLUOR21: Synthesis, structure and function of fluorinated systems) to work in the groups of Dr. Petr Beier starting in September 2014.

Candidates fluent in English with good knowledge of organic chemistry, and experience in organic synthesis and spectroscopic characterization techniques please contact Dr. Petr Beier (beier@uochb.cas.cz)
