The iHuman Institute at ShanghaiTech University focuses on the investigation of human cell signaling and thereof. The Institute has been composed of research labs and core facilities covering chemistry, computation, imaging and structural biology. The multi-disciplinary collaboration is highly encouraged to promote the research beyond today. Chemistry and Chemical Biology Lab aims to the understanding, and if applicable, the manipulating the protein function, and the translation to clinical application. We are seeking young professionals to carry out chemical tool development.
Post-doctoral applicants should own, or are expected to have in half a year, a Ph.D degree in either organic chemistry, or chemical biology, medicinal chemistry, polymer chemistry, biochemistry, analytical chemistry. Post-doctors will work on the design, synthesis, functionalization or application of small molecule based probes and other tools in a highly integrative collaboration. The Lab and the Institute encourage and support the communications within iHuman and other national and worldwide visiting projects. Financial support will be provided by the Institute. Apartments in the main campus of the University will be applicable.
Joint graduate students are welcomed with majors in organic chemistry, chemical biology, biochemistry, polymer chemistry, medicinal chemistry, analytical chemistry. Graduate students will work with, or independently lead projects on the design, synthesis and application of tool ligands or d. High standard dormitory and competitive working allowance will be provided.
