Job Summary:

We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher in Organic Synthesis to join our team at the University of Florida. The successful candidate will work under the supervision of Prof. Kaibo Feng, focusing on the development of new synthetic methodologies. The researcher will conduct research in synthesizing and characterizing organic and organometallic compounds, mentor graduate students, publish in peer-reviewed journals, and assist funding applications.

This position will be initially awarded for one year, and may be renewed contingent upon strong performance and availability of funds.

The Feng Group is dedicated to addressing enduring synthetic challenges and developing transformative reactions with the aid of transition-metal and organocatalysts.

We are especially interested in harnessing non-covalent interactions pivotal in enzymatic reactions for designing small-molecule catalysts that promote challenging transformations, as well as developing new approaches to enhance these types of interactions for biologically active compounds.

The University of Florida is the state's oldest, largest, and most comprehensive land grant university with an enrollment of over 50,000 students and was ranked 6th in the country among public universities (US News and World Report 2023 rankings), and 1st among public institutions in the Wall Street Journal 2023 survey.

The beautiful climate and extensive nearby parks and recreational areas afford year-round outdoor activities, including hiking, biking, and nature photography.

The successful candidate should have a strong background in organic synthesis and transition-metal catalysis.

Responsibilities:

Conduct research in synthesizing and characterizing organic and organometallic compounds

Mentor graduate students

Publish in peer-reviewed journals

Assist funding applications

Requirements:

Ph.D. in Chemistry

Experience in organic synthesis and catalysis

Preferred Qualifications:

Excellent written and verbal communication skills

Ability to work independently and as a part of a team

Ability to take initiatives, set priorities, time-manage, and solve problems

Experience in instrumental analysis and molecular characterization, including GC, HPLC, SFC, NMR, IR, mass spectrometry
