Candidates should submit a statement of research interests, resume and names of at least three references to Professor Robert, A. Scott, Head, Department of Chemistry, The University of Georgia, Athens,GA 30602-2556. Evaluation of applications will begin on October 1, 1997. Resources are available to attract candidates who are poised to contribute immediately and significantly to structural biology applications of spectroscopy. These resources include acquisition of a 600 MHz NMR spectrometer as part of our structural biology initiative, and an 800 MHz spectrometer which is supported by the Georgia Research Alliance as a regional facility. Applicants should possess a Ph.D. in chemistry, biochemistry or closely related field, the potential to establish a vigorous independent research program, and the ability to contribute to teaching at both undergraduate and graduate levels.
Postdoctoral experience is desirable.
Deadline for receipt of applications is November 1, 1997. Seeks postdoctoral candidate to perform molecular recognition research in the Chemical Separations Group. The major issue is the relationship between extractant structure and both the efficiency and selectivity of extraction for specific ions and ion pairs. Seeks two postdoctoral fellows in the division of Medicinal Chemistry. The types of activities envisioned are design and synthesis of peptidomimetic compounds and the de novo design and synthesis of nonpeptide compounds, that act as inhibitors of the AIDS virus protein gp120 with the leukocyte receptor CD4.
