Odense M
The Department of Physics, Chemistry and Pharmacy, University of Southern Denmark (SDU) in Odense invites applications for a postdoctoral position in Natural Products Chemistry.
The main aim of this postdoctoral project is to isolate and characterize all types of anti-inflammatory compounds from the herbal supplement Lito® Hyben that is based on the fruits of dog rose (Rosa canina) using a bioassay-guided chromatographic fractionation approach and to evaluate their anti-inflammatory effect in vitro. The anti-inflammatory activity of Lito® Hyben has been demonstrated in several in vitro and preclinical trials.
Previously anti-inflammatory galactolipids have been isolated from this herbal supplement, but these natural products are not very stable in the product. Thus, it is important to find more stable anti-inflammatory marker compounds that can contribute to the understanding of the anti-inflammatory activity of Lito® Hyben that can be used as biomarker compounds for the approval of Lito® Hyben as a herbal medicine with a documented anti-inflammatory activity for the use in the treatment of chronic anti-inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis with no side effects in contrast to non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs.
The project will be conducted in collaboration with Hyben Vital Aps.
We are seeking a highly motivated applicant to join the Natural Products Chemistry research unit for this project.
The ideal candidate has the following competences and skills:
Additional valuable skills:
Starting date: 1 October 2021 or soon thereafter. The position is for up to two years. Application deadline: 15 August 2021.
For further information please contact Professor Lars Porskjær Christensen, Department of Physics, Chemistry and Pharmacy, University of Southern Denmark, e-mail: [email protected].
Application, salary etc.
The successful applicant will be employed in accordance with the agreement between the Ministry of Finance and AC (the Danish Confederation of Professional Associations). Please check links for more information on salary and taxation.
The application must include the following:
• A curriculum vitae including information on previous employment.
• A full list of publications stating the scientific publications on which the applicant wishes to rely.
Shortlisting may be used in the assessment process.
Incomplete applications and applications received after the deadline will neither be considered nor evaluated.
To qualify you must have passed a PhD or equivalent. Applications will be assessed by an expert assessor/committee. Applicants will be informed of their assessment by the university.
The University wishes our staff to reflect the diversity of society and thus welcomes applications from all qualified candidates regardless of personal background.
Applications must be submitted electronically using the link "Apply online". Attached files must be in Adobe PDF or Word format. Each box can only contain a single file of max. 10 Mb. We strongly recommend that you read How to apply before you apply.
