The postdoctoral researcher will be working to develop a cascade reaction combining enzyme- and
transition metal-catalyzed reactions.
The postdoctoral researcher will be co-mentored by professors
Frank Jordan and Michal Szostak for the enzymatic and synthetic organic chemistry aspects of the
project, respectively.
A successful candidate will have a Ph.D. degree and a strong background in synthetic organic chemistry,
particularly in asymmetric synthesis and/or catalysis, and will be able to start on or about September 1,
2015. The initial appointment is for 9 months.
