India: Faculty positions at Indian Maritime University 2012

Postdoctoral Research Associate in experimental nuclear physics

Applications are invited for the following two posts under the project entitled “Measurements, EXFOR Compilation and theoretical study of nuclear data” (No. 2012/36/17-BRNS dt. 14.08.2012) funded under the auspices of the Nuclear Data Physics Centre of India (NDPCI) - by the Board of Research in Nuclear Sciences, Department of Atomic Energy, Govt of India undertaken by Dr. B. Lalremruata(PI) and Dr. Hranghmingthanga(CI), Department of Physics, Mizoram University, Tanhril-796004, Aizawl, Mizoram.     

Preference may be given to those who have working experience in neutron induced cross section measurements, and theoretical nuclear physics based model calculations.  Interested candidate should be able to work independently and should be prepared to work at various facilities such as in Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, TIFR Pelletron Facility Mumbai etc. to carry out the task. Those who have submitted their PhD thesis in experimental nuclear physics and are waiting to clear the viva can also apply.

Postdoctoral position in Analytical, Environmental Chemistry

 Two Postdoctoral Research Fellow positions are available in Analytical/Environmental Chemistry in the research group of Dr Elizabeth M Hill at the University of Sussex. The researcher will join an exciting European Union- funded project on the identification of endocrine disrupting chemicals and emerging pollutants in sediments and waters of UK and France coastal environments.

Postdoctoral position in Synthetic Organic Chemistry: Synthesis of Ferrocenyl-Podophyllo Analogs and their Evaluation as Anti-Tumor Agents

The project will be in collaboration between the team Synthèses Sélectives et Organométalliques (SSO) directed by Prof. G. Poli (Institut Parisien de Chimie Moléculaire, UMR 7201) and the team  Chimie Organométallique Médicinale directed by  Prof. G.  Jaouen at the Ecole Nationale  Supérieure de Chimie de Paris (Laboratoire Charles Friedel, UMR 7223). The Goal is to synthesize a series of ferrocene-containing lignans, such  as  podophyllotoxins.

Among the several existing derivatives of podophyllotoxin, etoposide and teniposide are the only cyclolignans used in cancer chemotherapy so far.  However, these efficient cytotoxic agents  induce severe toxic effects and the discovery of more potent and/or less toxic analogs of this  family would be highly desirable. Accordingly, we aim to develop the synthesis of new ferrocenecontaining cyclolignans and study the pharmacological properties of these original  bioorganometallic targets. This project fully relies on the synergic convergence of the two research groups, that possess complementary skills. From one side, one of the pioneer of bioorganometallic chemistry, having a  longstanding experience in ferrocenyl conjugates and biological tests, from the other side a group  well experienced in multistep organic synthesis, organometallic catalytic synthesis and the  chemistry of lignans.

The successful candidate will be based in the Pr. Poli's team, under the supervision of Dr. J. Oble,  at Université Pierre et Marie Curie, Paris 6, 4 Place Jussieu, 75252 Paris cedex 5. Candidate profil: Experience in multistep synthetic organic chemistry is essential, and applicants must have a PhD  in Synthetic Organic Chemistry.
