Postdoctoral Researcher Radio labeling (Organic Chemistry) CONRTACT Hartbeespoort Key Responsibilities Develop new synthesis routes for bioactive compounds and radio-therapeutics. Synthesize linkers, attach to compounds, and perform full characterisation (NMR, HPLC-MS, FT-IR, TLC). Radiolabel molecules, conduct cell uptake and stability studies. Present findings, mentor MSc/PhD students, and contribute to reports, publications, and conferences. Publish at least two papers per year. Requirements PhD (last 5 years) in synthetic organic or medicinal chemistry ; Strong background in organic synthesis (e.g., CC coupling, amide formation, halogenation, protection/deprotection). Proficient in analytical techniques (TLC, NMR, HPLC-MS, FT-IR). Advantageous: experience with radioactivity handling, molecular modelling, and radio-analytical techniques (LSC, gamma spectroscopy) . At least one peer-reviewed publication in the last 5 years (preferably in organic/medicinal/radiochemistry). Excellent English communication skills.
