PhD Studentship: PhD in Synthetic Chemistry

The project: We are seeking applications from students covering the whole breadth of the synthetic chemistry spectrum. We encourage applications from students whose interests include:

• Metal catalysed transformations
• New scaffolds for medicines and agrochemicals
• Designer ligands for catalysis
• Computational modelling and automation
• Design and synthesis of new bioactive and functional molecules
• Main group chemistry: from molecules to materials
• Development of expedient new synthetic methodologies
• Chemistry, synthesis and activity of natural products
• Cleaner synthesis and reactor technology.
