The successful candidate must have a proven track record in the determination of biomolecular structures using NMR techniques, specifically including the implementation of pulse sequences required for multi-dimensional NMR and the use of assignment and structure programs to derive 3D structures from NOE and other constraints. Experience with Varian spectrometers preferable, but not required. Post Doctoral research associate. Participate in a research project involving the development of multispectral imaging instruments for bioanalytical and biomedical applications. Requires a doctorate in chemistry with hands-on experience with organic synthesis and analytical instruments for trace chemical characterization.
Salary commensurate with qualifications and experience.
Experience in transition metal organometallic chemistry is desirable, but not an absolute requirement, so please feel free to pass this on to your more organic colleagues. The research will involve development of time resolved infrared spectroscopy and its applications to laser photochemistry of organometallics. The research programme is led by Professor Robin Perutz and Dr Simon Duckett. Their research groups have an international impact and strong links with other groups in Europe and North America. Candidates should have extensive experience of laser spectroscopy.
