Master thesis - Prof. Zille - (in silico)

The Division of Pharmacology and Toxicology of the University of Vienna is offering a

Master thesis (in silico)

in the research group Cerebrovascular Pharmacology. Our group develops novel therapeutic options for neurological diseases, with a particular focus on stroke, brain hemorrhage, vascular dementia, and brain aging. Using cutting-edge scientific approaches and technologies, we aim to better understand the nervous system and its interactions with the body. This enables us to develop innovative therapies for prevention, cytoprotection, regeneration, and recovery of motor and cognitive function that are limited in patients suffering from these devastating diseases.

Your tasks will comprise:

• Perform Molecular Docking
• Acquire 2D and 3D interactions for docked complexes
• Predict the pharmacokinetic parameters (ADMET, if needed)
• Data analysis

We are looking for a highly motivated person who:

• Is interested in neuroscience
• Has basic knowledge in docking studies
• Has experience in other in-silico approaches (this is a plus)
• Works reliably (appropriate training will be provided)
• Is a team player
• Is fluent in English
• Can invest at least 6 months of full-time work

We offer:

• An interesting project with some room for own ideas
• Direct supervision and regular group meetings
• The ability to work independently after appropriate training
