Prospective Students
Graduate student positions are available for talented students. We are looking for passionate students who enjoy solving challenging scientific problems and who are mature, dilligent and creative. We offer an inspiring research environment, which aims to realize your full scientific potential and prepare you for the job markpet.
Graduate students from my program have been in high demand and all of them have secured jobs in industry or postdoctoral fellowships. My first Ph.D. student graduated with sixteen research articles and was selected among ~400 applicants for a postdoctoral fellowship with Ionis Pharmaceuticals - a world leader in the discovery and development of oligonucleotide therapeutics - where he is now a highly appreciated principal scientist. Subsequent Ph.D. graduates went on to work with researchers at leading institutions such as Stanford, Scripps, and Oxford or at Alnylam Pharmaceuticals as postdoctoral fellows. Take home message: your prospects for a high-paying job are outstanding.
Our research program is highly interdisciplinary and includes synthetic organic chemistry, medicinal chemistry, biophysical chemistry, molecular biology, bioanalytical chemistry, and nanotechnology. Regardless of your background and interest, we are likely to have a suitable project for you. If this sounds interesting, I recommend that you read about our research and publications and contact me.
