Open Positions

At present:

1. Ph. D. position in synthetic ion channel studies: A graduate student position is open in beginning of 2011 to carry out a Ph.D. thesis in synthetic ion channel field. Applicants must hold a Master's degree in chemistry, biochemistry, or related areas, and have a strong interest in organic synthesis. Candidates must have desired rank/score in CSIR/GATE set by IISER Pune.

The project involves rigorous organic synthesis, UV and fluorescent studies. Fundamental knowledge of ion channels, lipids, non-covalent interactions, molecular recognition, etc. is desirable.

2. Ph. D. position in drug design and synthesis: A graduate student position is open in beginning of 2011 to carry out a Ph.D. thesis in drug design and synthesis. Applicants must hold a Master's degree in chemistry, biochemistry, or related areas, and have a strong interest in computational drug design. Candidates must have desired rank/score in CSIR/GATE set by IISER Pune.

Knowledge of docking program (Autodock or any other program) is desirable. In addition, knowledge and interest in organic synthesis is also resired.
