A PhD scholarship within NMR spectroscopy is available at DTU Chemistry. It will be part of a larger project entitled “Enzymatic production of human milk oligosaccharides” supported by the Danish Council for Strategic Research. The main objective of the PhD project is structure elucidation of both enzymatic as well as synthetically produced oligosaccharides and other natural products by NMR spectroscopy. The project will also include development of new methodology for absolute structure determination by NMR and application of residual dipolar couplings in structure calculations.
Qualifications
* Candidates should have a master’s degree in chemistry or chemical engineering preferentially with a theoretical and experimental background in NMR spectroscopy and organic chemistry
* A strong commitment to research
Applicants should have a thorough interest in NMR spectroscopy. The position offers an opportunity to work within an international, dynamic multi-disciplinary project having participants from both universities and industry.
Scholarship Application Deadline: 18 February 2011
