Assistant researcher organic chemistry

Description of the workplace

Chemical Biology & Therapies is a multidisciplinary laboratory—materials/medicinal chemistry, in-vivo/in vitro biology, and applied physics—at Lund University and Gothenburg University that researches new therapeutic strategies. The lab has recently been awarded funding to study electronic therapies in a neuropharma project (e-NeuroPharma). In the e-Neuropharma project, we develop in-vivo self-organizing bioelectronic molecular systems as therapies against neurodegenerative diseases. e-Neuropharma is a collaboration with the bioelectronics group at Linköping University, Karolinska Institutet and Chalmers University of Technology.
