About this position
A postdoctoral position in the Ming Chen research group at Virginia Tech focuses on developing asymmetric transformations catalyzed by transition-metal complexes. The project centers on reaction development and mechanistic investigation, with an emphasis on synthetic applications of newly developed catalytic methods.
The postdoctoral associate will work on parallel reaction-condition screening and product identification using advanced analytical techniques. This is a research-intensive role in organic synthesis and asymmetric catalysis, combining method development with mechanistic and application-driven studies.
The position is based at Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, Virginia, within a large research university environment.
