The Department of Physics, Chemistry and Pharmacy, SDU in Odense invites applications for a postdoc position in the field of organic chemistry and artificial enzyme in the Dr Changzhu Wu group. Wu group is working on enzyme catalysis, in which cutting-edge materials/molecules are designed to improve biocatalyst performance. The group applies interdisciplinary expertise in the field of enzyme catalysis, chemistry, polymer science, engineering, and microbiology to develop industrially relevant biocatalysts for applications.

This postdoc project is funded by Independent Research Fund Denmark (DFF) in the framework of DFF Sapere Aude leader. The project intends to develop artificial enzymes by combining enzymes/proteins with polymer catalysts. Our group is specialized in polymer synthesis, molecular catalysis design, and protein modification.

We are a highly dynamic and international research group, actively engaging with on-site partners, e.g. Danish Institute for Advanced Study, Biomolecular Nanoscale Engineering Center, and SDU Protein Production and Purification Platform. We also work together with international groups in Germany and China for polymer design and enzyme catalysis.

We are seeking an enthusiastic, ambitious, and independent candidate with relevant background.

The ideal candidate has the following competences and skills:
• A PhD degree in organic chemistry, polymer chemistry, supramolecular chemistry, or related disciplines with a strong background in organic synthesis or molecular catalysis design.
• Good interpersonal and communication skills (English) for effective teamwork across disciplines.
• Excellent publication record in the relevant field.
• Preferably a background in polymer catalysis, organocatalysis, organometallic catalysis, supramolecular catalysis, protein-polymer conjugation, or similar.
• Experience with asymmetric catalysis for organic synthesis.

Starting date: As soon as possible.
The position is for two years with the possibility to extend for one more year. Application deadline: 30 April 2023.

For further information please contact Dr Changzhu Wu, Department of Physics, Chemistry and Pharmacy, e-mail: [email protected].

The Department of Physics, Chemistry and Pharmacy is one of four departments at the Faculty of Science, SDU and is located in Odense. The Department of Physics, Chemistry and Pharmacy is a department focused on basic research. We are happy to move beyond traditional disciplines and work to develop new technologies and sciences across physics, chemistry, pharmacy, mathematics, computer science and biology. The department’s research thus contributes to new knowledge and solutions with applications in the areas of climate, environment, energy and health.

The department has a strong chemistry programme with leading international researchers within Nucleic Acid Chemistry, Medicinal Chemistry, Biological Chemistry, Materials Chemistry, Nanotechnology, Green Chemistry and Computational Chemistry. In addition to the chemical research programme, the department has a strong research profile within Pharmaceutical Technology. The position is placed in the Chemistry and Pharmacy section.
