About this position

✨ The CATIA research group at the Organic Chemistry Department of Universidad Autónoma de Madrid (UAM), Spain, is advertising a 3-year postdoctoral position in Synthetic Organic Chemistry.

The project focuses on total synthesis, organometallic catalysis, and photocatalysis, with the goal of developing new therapeutic agents against Alzheimer’s disease. The successful candidate will work under the supervision of Dr. Javier Corpas and contribute to retrosynthetic planning, laboratory-scale synthesis, optimization of catalytic methodologies, preparation of starting materials, and characterization of organic compounds using techniques such as NMR, mass spectrometry, and HPLC.

Eligibility highlights: a PhD in Organic Chemistry is required; strong experience in the synthesis of medium/high-complexity organic molecules and organometallic catalysis is expected; photocatalysis experience is highly desirable; and good English is required.

Funding: the position is a 3-year contract supported by the Ayudas a programas de actividades de I+D en Salud 2025 program (Ref: SYNREPAIR-AD-CM).

How to apply: send your application directly to Dr. Javier Corpas at [email protected] by 2026-11-30. Include your CV, publication list, motivation letter, contact details for two references, and official BSc/MSc transcripts.
