Scholarship Description: This PhD project will focus on taking this dendrimer scaffold and elaborating it to demonstrate proof-of-concept examples of how this scaffold can be used as a drug. It will involve the development of synthetic chemical methodology to give high purity, well defined products. HPLC and LCMS will be used to interrogate products for side reactions and the synthetic methodology refined to minimise these. The student will therefore be exposed to a range of synthetic and analytical techniques, working alongside a team of professional scientists. The products will be tested in biological assays by collaborators and there will be the opportunity for the successful candidate to participate in performing some of these bioassays.
