CNRS Research Director Anton Granzhan is recruiting for an 18-month postdoctoral position in bioorganic chemistry and chemical biology at LCBPT (CNRS – Université Paris Cité, Paris, France). The project builds on a recent discovery of small molecules that selectively bind DNA three-way junctions and show toxicity against certain cancer cells. The next stage is to design a new generation of macrocyclic TWJ ligands and heterobifunctional probes to investigate how these molecules act in cells. Suit...
