Objective
Announcement for fellows to join the Fattorusso's Group of Marine Natural Products at the Dipartimento di Chimica delle Sostanze naturali (Dept. of Chemistry of Natural Products), University of Napoli "Federico II" (Italy). The group has a 30-year-long experience in the isolation and structure elucidation of secondary metabolites from marine organisms, and intend to expand the basic research in this area, developing new methods and improving ones that already exist. Accordingly, there are THREE TWO-YEAR POSITION AVAILABLE for postdoctoral Fellows with expertise in the following areas:
a) Microbiology: isolation and harvesting of microorganisms living on marine animals and plants, in order to identify strains producing interesting chemistry;
b) MS/MS spectrometry: the use of tandem mass spectrometry as a tool for structure determination of organic molecules;
c) Pharmacology: setup of simple and quick bench assays to screen a large number of extracts and fractions; evaluation of possible biological activity of a library of pure natural products. Applicants should be doctors with research experience in any of the areas listed above. These positions will be of interest to highly motivated individuals interested in joining a multidisciplinary team. As well as carrying on their own research, the successful candidates will be expected to train other members of Fattorusso's Group and to collaborate with their colleagues in the group to develop appropriate methodologies. The group has (or will purchase) all the necessary equipment to host a researcher with expertise in the areas given. The host institution strongly supports and will implement the Equal Opportunities policies (in Particular between women and men) of the EC.
