The University of Oxford is recruiting a Postdoctoral Research Associate in Natural Product Chemistry for the Oxford Martin Programme on Safer Antifungals. Based at the Life and Mind Building on South Parks Road and the Department of Pharmacology on Mansfield Road, the project aims to discover a new generation of naturally inspired products for combating fungal diseases in agriculture and medicine. The research focuses on microscopic freshwater bdelloid rotifers, which naturally protect themselv...

A fully funded doctoral researcher position at the University of Helsinki invites applications to study protein synthesis in the lab of Sarah O’Keefe , with co-supervision from Brendan Battersby . The project, Inhibiting Protein Synthesis – Old, New, Borrowed, Blue , is based at the Viikki Campus in Helsinki and sits within the Faculty of Biological and Environmental Sciences. The project brings together cellular and chemical biology to investigate how protein synthesis works and how it can be d...

This postdoctoral project is based in the RNA Structural Dynamics Group at the Groningen Biomolecular Sciences and Biotechnology Institute (GBB) , University of Groningen. The research centres on how small molecules can alter the conformational behaviour of RNA, a class of molecules that often exists as a dynamic ensemble rather than a single structure. The project builds on recent work showing that a bioactive compound can influence RNA function not just by binding, but by selectively stabilisi...

The Wachter Lab at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston, Massachusetts, is seeking a postdoctoral research fellow to investigate fundamental questions in the molecular mechanisms of transcriptional control. The lab is a structural and chemical biology group studying transcriptional regulation associated with human diseases, including cancer. Its research integrates molecular biology, structural biology, functional genomics, proteomics, and computationally guided approaches to understand how mo...

The Konstanz Research School Chemical Biology (KoRS-CB) at the University of Konstanz offers a structured doctoral programme in chemical biology, designed to prepare researchers to address fundamental questions about life in chemical terms. The programme combines interdisciplinary education with research across five closely connected areas: synthetic chemistry, cellular biochemistry, biomedicine, biophysics, and computational life science. Students work in an academic environment that emphasizes...

Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Medicinal Chemistry at the School of Chemistry and Molecular Biosciences , University of Queensland, based at the St Lucia Campus. This is a research-focused postdoctoral opportunity in a collaborative, high-performing team working on medicinal chemistry, drug discovery and development. The successful fellow will help build a coherent research program and contribute to work aimed at tackling real-world health challenges through the design, synthesis and optimisati...

The Zhang Lab in the Division of Chemical Biology and Medicinal Chemistry at the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy is seeking a postdoctoral research associate for interdisciplinary research in contemporary chemical biology and drug discovery. The project will investigate how lipid metabolism interacts with membrane structures and biocondensates. The researcher will develop experimental platforms to study these relationships and uncover guiding principles for membrane signaling. The work combines ...
