Dear all, I have two open to work on fragment/XChem-related methodology 
for structure-based compound design.

Team Leader (applications close next *Weds 1st May*):  full ad here 
<https://www.thesgc.org/careers/oxford/sgc-oxford-team-leader-xchem>, 
summary:

    /We are recruiting an experienced computational chemist or
    scientific programmer, to head the Fragalysis project for automating
    fragment hit progression, part of the XChem collaboration between
    SGC and Diamond...  The //Fragalysis
    <https://fragalysis.diamond.ac.uk/>//project leader will be tasked
    with converting the existing proof-of-concept tool into a
    production-level system that is routinely usable for analysing XChem
    results and designing and acquiring follow-up compounds. This will
    entail setting the scientific direction and priorities of the
    project through close and continuous interaction with expert and
    novice users; coordinating a growing team of scientific programmers
    and contractors; liaising with and expanding a wide and
    international set of collaborators and contributors; securing
    further funding for the project; helping supervise students; and
    developing specific methodologies of their own./


Postdoc (closing *Weds 15th May*):  full advert here 
<https://www.thesgc.org/careers/oxford/sgc-oxford-postdoctoral-research-scientist-structure-based-drug-design>, 
this is a summary:

    /This role will be tasked with the design and acquisition of
    follow-up compounds based on fragment screening hits from the Target
    Enabling Package (//www.thesgc.org/tep
    <http://www.thesgc.org/tep>//) and Ultra-DD (//www.ultra-dd.org
    <http://www.ultra-dd.org>//) programs. The successful candidate will
    coordinate experimental validation of the newly designed compounds
    with collaborating scientists in order to progress them towards
    potent molecules.
    /

Cheers
Frank
