In the research groups of Prof. Jan Korvink and Dr. Benno Meier you will work on the spectroscopic investigation of the dynamics of chiral ligands in their interactions with larger molecules using NMR.

You will develop completely new spectroscopic methods that specifically and selectively elucidate the individual role of the various enantiomers. Research tasks will include exploring the limits of chiral recognition; exploring the potential of chiral NMR elucidation via pulse sequence development; exploring NMR encoding of “chirality” to expand the utility of the effect in molecular recognition. You will publish the research results in renowned specialist journals and present them at international conferences.

In addition to the academic work, there is the possibility of doing a doctorate.

You have a university degree (Master) in chemistry, physics or a related subject. Specific experience in NMR spectroscopy for the structure elucidation of small molecules is desirable. Pulse sequence programming and general programming (Python, C++, C#, etc.) and/or experience with the handling and development of NMR hardware are an advantage.
