Job Overview

Job Description

We’re hiring! 18-month postdoc in bioorganic chemistry / chemical biology at LCBPT (CNRS – Université Paris Cité, Paris). We recently discovered small molecules that selectively bind DNA three-way junctions and are toxic to certain cancer cells. Now we want to take the next step: design a new generation of macrocyclic TWJ ligands, plus heterobifunctional probes to find out how they act in cells. 🔹 Profile: PhD in organic, medicinal chemistry or chemical biology, with strong synthetic skills (experience with chemistry of macrocycles and/or of heterobifunctional molecules is a plus) 🔹 Start: January 2027 or later 🔹 Applications: via the CNRS job portal, ref. UMR8601-ANTGRA-005 (link in comments). Review begins 20 November 2026. Informal questions (not applications) are welcome by email. Please share with anyone who might be interested!
