Post-doctoral fellowships are being offered in the University of Cape Town’s Drug Discovery and Development Centre (H3D) housed in the Department of Chemistry building.
The successful applicants will join a consortium that is being funded from various sources with a special focus on conducting integrated drug discovery, specifically integrating medicinal chemistry, drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics (DMPK), and pre-clinical pharmacology.
This programme will be under the guidance of senior medicinal chemists within H3D, who will act as mentors and supervisors.
The research focus for these postdoctoral fellowships will be synthetic organic chemistry and medicinal chemistry and, with guidance, you will learn to use and apply data from DMPK and biological studies to design and synthesize potential drug leads for malaria and other infectious diseases.
