Subject: 08.05.06 Computer Aided Drug Design - Post-doctoral fellowship
Theoretical chemistry methodologies have become an essential part
of the drug-discovery process, from protein and ligand visualization
methods, virtual screening and lead optimization techniques to
in-silico ADMET predictions. This post-doctoral fellowship is
designed to use non-classical theoretical methods to help medicinal
chemists rationalize widely recognized reactivity profiles of
chemical reactions. As the theories underlying quantum chemistry
calculations have evolved to a stage where reaction pathways and
energetics can be calculated with significant accuracy, it is becoming
more attractive to be able to rationalize why a chemical reaction
worked successfully or failed, and why a molecule is metabolized
at a certain atomic position and how that can be modified or avoided.
The NIBR postdoctoral candidate will help advance the knowledge on
molecular reactivity and stability within GDC and use state-of-the-art
approaches to solve real world problems.
The fellowship is for a single 3-year term.
