PhD in Computational Chemistry and Natural Product Drug Design for Anti-inflammatory Fungal Compounds Université de Strasbourg in France

PhD opportunity in France at Université de Strasbourg in collaboration with CNRS and the IPHC Strasbourg Institute. The project is centered on computational chemistry, natural products, and drug discovery, with a focus on identifying anti-inflammatory fungal compounds using in silico methods.

The research topic is titled Identification of anti-inflammatory fungal compounds using in silico techniques with dual targeting of COX and LOX enzymes. The work combines molecular modeling, docking, molecular dynamics, and analysis of enzyme-ligand interactions to discover promising compounds from fungal metabolites. The project sits at the intersection of chemistry, biology, bioinformatics, and computer simulation.

Candidate profile: a solid background in chemistry/biochemistry, bioinformatics or computational chemistry, and molecular modeling. Experience or interest in spectroscopy or chromatography is a plus. The post emphasizes interdisciplinary ability, rigor, proactivity, and critical thinking.

Application materials requested: CV, Master’s transcript/notes, and a motivation letter/message. Send the documents by email to [email protected] and [email protected]. The post states that the opportunity is open to international students wishing to pursue a PhD in France.

No funding details or deadline were specified in the post. The announcement is a research PhD opening rather than a scholarship call.
