Responsibilities
  • Develop and apply a wide variety of computational techniques, including protein structure predictions, molecular dynamics, docking, virtual screening, structural chemogenomics, machine learning, AI, free-energy perturbations, etc.
  • Manage and analyze large datasets, with expertise in cheminformatics and bioinformatics.
  • Model G-protein coupled receptors and enzymes, and develop novel methodologies for drug discovery.
  • Program and script in various languages, and have a strong publication record.
  • Communicate effectively with colleagues and students, and have leadership skills to lead the CADD group.
Requirements
  • PhD in computational chemistry, medicinal chemistry, or a related field.
  • Experience in drug development, medicinal chemistry, and computational chemistry.
  • Strong publication record and leadership skills.
  • Ability to motivate and teach graduate and undergraduate students.
What We Offer
  • A challenging position in a socially engaged organisation.
  • A salary of minimum € 4.332,00 (Scale 11) and maximum € 6.737,00 (Scale 12) gross per month, on a full-time basis.
