Postdoctoral Position in Organic Chemistry, Organocatalysis, and Related Fields (MSCA Seal of Excellence)

The Cocatalysis Group at Tallinn University of Technology (TalTech), Estonia, led by Mikk Kaasik, is inviting applications for a postdoctoral position for candidates who have received a Seal of Excellence (at least 85%) with their MSCA postdoctoral application. The group’s research interests include asymmetric organocatalysis, cocatalysis, and synthetic efficiency, with a strong focus on organic chemistry. Areas of higher relevance for this opportunity are organocatalysis, main group chemistry, and photochemistry, but candidates with expertise in electrochemistry or sugar chemistry are also encouraged to apply. This position is supported by potential postdoctoral funding from the Estonian Research Council through the MSCA Postdoctoral Grants. The successful candidate will join a dynamic research environment at TalTech’s Department of Chemistry and Biotechnology, contributing to innovative research in organic synthesis and catalysis. The group is particularly interested in candidates who can bring new perspectives and skills in the highlighted research areas. Eligibility is limited to those who have already received a Seal of Excellence for their MSCA postdoctoral application. Interested candidates should contact Mikk Kaasik directly at [email protected] to discuss their eligibility and research fit.
