PhD Studentship in Chemistry for Catalytic CO2 Utilisation
A PhD studentship is available at the University of Cambridge, starting in October 2025 under the supervision of Professor Erwin Reisner in the Yusuf Hamied Department of Chemistry. Read more
Competitive EPSRC funded PhD in Chemistry:Understanding interactions leading to pharmacological or biological activity through state-of-the-art biophysical techniques
Understanding interactions leading to pharmacological or biological activity through state-of-the-art biophysical techniques. Read more
PhD in Chemistry: New antibiotics to kill 'Superbugs' by stopping them dividing
While antibiotics have revolutionised the landscape of medicine saving millions of lives, their misuse has also resulted in the rise of “Superbugs”, which are bacteria resistant to most of the standard antibiotics. Read more
Competitive EPSRC funded PhD in Chemistry: Sustainable synthesis of antiviral and anticancer drugs through chemoenzymatic routes
Sustainable synthesis of antiviral and anticancer drugs through chemoenzymatic routes. Nucleoside analogues (NAs) have been in clinical use for almost 50 years and are the cornerstone for the treatment of cancer or viral infections. Read more
Competitive EPSRC funded PhD in Chemistry: Small Molecule Activation and Valorisation Using Low-Coordinate Complexes
Small Molecule Activation and Valorisation Using Low-Coordinate Complexes. Transition metal complexes featuring highly coordinatively and electronically unsaturated centres are challenging synthetic targets, but they show unusual reactivity which stems from their unique coordination environments. Read more
Competitive EPSRC funded PhD in Chemistry: Mechanistic investigation of chemical transformations in molecular solids: towards future energy applications
Cheap, clean, and sustainable energy is vital to improve global living standards without compromising our climate and environment. Read more
Photocatalysis by Metal Mabiq Complexes
A central focus of our research is the development of earth abundant, transition metal photocatalysts for small molecule reactions (H2 evolution, CO2 reduction) as well as for various organic transformations. Read more
Development of chemical probes to study Phytophthora
Research project . We are seeking a highly motivated PhD candidate to undertake research developing chemical probes for Phytophthora, including Phytophthora agathidicida. Read more
Design and synthesis of chemical tools to interrogate cannabinoid receptors - synthetic, medicinal chemistry
Research project. We are seeking a highly motivated PhD candidate to join an interdisciplinary team at the University of Otago, to undertake research developing chemical probes for the cannabinoid receptor, a type of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR). Read more
Photoredox molecular editing for enhanced drug discovery
Molecular editing platforms, the process by which single atoms can be inserted or deleted selectively in or around a molecule’s skeleton, are transformative to synthetic chemists across industry and academia for the streamlined development of new drugs. Read more
