Interested in biological imaging with metal complexes? We are looking for a PhD in organic/bioorganic/inorganic chemistry to develop luminescent probes for cell and small animal imaging.
The Institute for Chemistry and Biology of the Marine Environment (ICBM) at the University of Oldenburg, Germany, invites applications for the position of a Doctoral Candidate (m/f/d). Join a dynamic research environment at the Institute for Chemistry and Biology of the Marine Environment (ICBM). We invite applications for a Doctoral Candidate (m/f/d) position, focusing on stable silicon isotopes in diatoms for climate reconstruction. The project contributes to a broader investigation of climate variability in the Pacific Southern Ocean over the …
Etude de l’efficacité in vitro de composés hydroxamiques pour le traitement de la contamination interne par des actinides
The topic will be the structure-function relationship in enzymes, in the specific case of [FeFe]-hydrogenase. Protein will be purified and crystallised which will then be photochemically activated and subsequently characterised spectroscopically and via (time-resolved) X-ray crystallography. Further details on the PhD programme can be found under this link.
Postdoctoral position available at the “Laboratoire de Bioénergétique et Ingénierie des Protéines” (BIP, UMR 7281) funded by Europe. The laboratory is located in Joseph Aiguier campus, next to the regional delegation of the CNRS.
The objectives of the project are to develop new lanthano-peptides catalysts with a well-folded peptide scaffold, high affinity for Ln(III) and positive interactions for substrate binding. The project will include peptide design and synthesis, characterisations using advanved analytical techniques (paramagnetic NMR, time-resolved luminescence) and molecular modelling, as well as evaluation of Ln-peptide catalysts on model reactions.

International collaboration France-USA) to start in January 2024.
The project’s aim is to elaborate a luminescent Cu(II)-sensor, that is able to measure specifically labile/exchangeable Cu(II)-concentrations in biological systems, from simpler cell culture medium to the challenging blood plasma. Such a Cu(II)-sensor would be very useful as a tool to understand the Cu metabolism and might have applications for diagnosis of diseases with increased exchangeable Cu pool concentrations such as Wilson’s or Alzheimer’s disease. The project incolves a consortium with several collaborators from different disciplines, including group from the …
