Within the framework of our running projects we are permanently looking for talented and motivated

PhD Students and Postdoctoral Fellows

Prerequisites:

1. Personalized motivation letter including the specialization of interest

2. A complete CV (including photograph and date of birth)

3. Certificates and grades of University educations and potential jobs/interns

CTA / BTA / MTA in our Radiopharmacy

We currently seek a new CTA / BTA / MTA with background in chemistry / Radiophemistry to reinforce our Readiopharmacy team. Your tasks will include the automated production of radiopharmaceuticals for positron emission tomography (PET) under the conditions of Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) as well as testing of incoming materials and general tasks in a GMP laboratory
(testing and monitoring). What we need is a profound knowledge of instrumental analysis (HPLC, GC, DC) and willingness to handle open radioactive substances. Experience in working under GMP conditions is an advantage.

Application deadline: 25.08.2024

To apply, please follow the link provided in the full announcement or on the link to our official UKT application webpage

 


 

Master Thesis

We offer a project for a Master's student.

Master Thesis: “Sugar analogs as a platform for molecular imaging”

Field: chemistry, biochemistry, radiochemistry

In recent years, research on new radiotracers for positron emission tomography has significantly accelerated and several new scaffolds have emerged. In particular, sugar-based radiotracers have shown to be able to capitalize on the specific pathways involved in eukaryote and prokaryotes metabolism and ultimately lead to their detection by PET imaging.

In order to expand the library of sugar-based radiotracers and their precursors for their use in specific imaging of cancer cells and of bacterial infections, and within the framework of a master’s thesis, we are looking for a dedicated chemist/biochemist/radiochemist master student (m/f/d) to join an ongoing project at the interface between chemistry and biology. While the core of the project will be centered around chemical modification of sugar analogs, further involvement in in vitro and possibly in vivo experiments documenting the behavior of radiolabeled sugars in various pathologies is foreseen.

Interested candidates are welcome to contact Dr. N. Beziere Dr. J. Cotton and provide a CV in English:
