Postdoctoral position in organic chemistry/medicinal chemistry
Informations générales
Lieu : CEA-Saclay, Department of bioorganic chemistry and isotopic labeling, Gif sur Yvette
Type de contrat :
postdoctorat
Quotité de travail :
100
Employeur :
CEA
Rémunération : 2100-2300€ net per month
Date d'embauche prévue :
01-10-2021
Durée du contrat :
12 mois
Missions/Activités :
In the frame of a collaborative project aiming at discovering compounds that interfere with the
intracellular retrograde trafficking, our group is developing small molecules that have been shown by
us and other groups to have a broad "therapeutic" activity (look for Retro-2 references) .
Based on the experience we acquired on Retro-2 analogs (see for instance J. Med. Chem. 2013, 56, 8,
3404-3413) and based on in silico design we now aim at developing a completely new chemical series
for which we already have encouraging preliminary results.
The postdoctoral fellow will be hosted at the SCBM (Service de Chimie Bioorganique et de
Marquage/Université Paris-Saclay) at CEA-Saclay under the supervision of Dr Jean-Christophe Cintrat
and will work in close collaboration with biology team within the network. All experiments will be
dealing with heterocyclic chemistry and may require some basic knowledge of in silico drug design.
