Duration
Two months

This project involves the synthesis of small peptides followed by their characterization using NMR and mass spectrometry. The subsequent goal is to crystallize the peptides and study them through single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction, alongside the characterization of various material properties using microscopic techniques. Additionally, there will be opportunities to carry out quantum chemical calculations to gain theoretical insights into the peptide structures. The student will also get a chance to have exposure to lasers and associated spectroscopic techniques.

Required knowledge

The student should have basic knowledge of undergraduate chemistry. Prior knowledge in organic synthesis will be beneficial.

Required skills

Experience in organic synthesis will be beneficial.
