Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral Research Associate in Synthetic Molecular Machines to work under the supervision of Professor Matthew Langton for a period of up to 24 months. The project involves the synthesis of molecular machines capable of interfacing with lipid bilayer membranes, including mechanically interlocked molecules and shuttles; and systems with controllable molecular motion.

Applicants must hold a PhD in synthetic chemistry, supramolecular chemistry or a related area, (or be close to completion) prior to taking up the appointment. The research requires expertise in multi-step synthetic organic Chemistry and characterisation of complex molecules and be able to plan and execute synthetic schemes successfully and safely with minimal supervision. Have expertise in analysis of functional molecular systems embedded in lipid bilayer vesicles, such as ion transport and/or catalysis, via a range of techniques including fluorescence spectroscopy, and/or single channel conductance measurements. You will be expected to manage your own academic research and administrative activities, to supervise other team and lab activities when asked and to coordinate work to meet specified deadlines.
