As Research Fellow in Synthetic Chemistry you will join a major 3-year EPSRC-funded programme (awarded to Professors Steve Marsden and Adam Nelson) focused on developing new catalytic tools for the direct elaboration of 3D fragment ‘hits’ into lead compounds.  You will assist the Investigators in delivering a general toolkit of methods for the direct functionalization of sp3 C-H bonds with medicinally-relevant functionality and applying this to the regio- and stereoselective elaboration of 3D fragments, exemplified in the context of fragments binding to disease-relevant proteins.
