Postdoc researcher in supramolecular chemistry

The Supramolecular Active Materials lab (SAM lab) led by Dr. Mohit Kumar
is looking for an experimental chemistry postdoctoral candidate to work on 
developing out of equilibrium self-assembled nanomaterials for multianalyte sensing and targeted therapeutics.
We are a young multidisciplinary group which aims to incorporate some of 
the characteristics of life into the design of functional nanomaterials. We 
study self-assembly of molecules, either under equilibrium or under out-ofequilibrium conditions, to develop functional supramolecular materials for 
sensing, diagnostics, nanomedicine etc. Our approach involves various 
research field like Organic Chemistry, Soft Matter, Nanomaterials and 
biotechnology among others. Please, visit our external web site for more

This specific project involves the development of out of equilibrium organic 
nanomaterials whose functional properties can be regulated by the 
chemical fuel. We aim to study how synthetic nanomaterials can act as an 
adaptive system for multi analyte detection and for targeted therapy.
We are looking for a postdoctoral researcher with a PhD in Chemistry, 
Chemical Engineering, material science or related field to perform synthesis 
and self-assembly investigation of specially designed organic molecules and 
then investigate their materials properties.
Key duties:
• Synthesis of custom designed organic molecules and formation of 
their self-assembled structure.
