Job Description
Missions
The candidate will be responsible for formulating antivirals in nanoparticulate forms (liposomes, nanoemulsions, cyclodextrins, polymeric nanoparticles) dedicated to lung delivery to treat/prevent infections. The formulations will be characterized from a physicochemical perspective through size measurements (light scattering, nanoparticle tracking analysis), zeta potential measurements, and electron microscopy. Encapsulation efficiency will be quantified using analytical techniques such as HPLC or LC-MS. The optimized nanoparticles will then be formulated into a dry powder for inhalation tyhat will be further characterized.
Activity
The candidate will perform the formulation of antivirals into the more appropriate pharmaceutical forms. Dosing of the encpasulated molecule will be performed. Finally, a dry powder for inhalation will be formulated.
Your Profil
Skills
We are looking for a candidate with expertise in pharmaceutical formulation. Expertise in analytical chemistry is also required. Fluency in spoken and written scientific English is required.
Your Work Environment
The project will be carried out with funding from PEPR Emerging infectious diseases. The work will take place at the Institut Galien Paris-Saclay (Orsay, Moulon campus, https://www.institut-galien.universite-paris-saclay.fr/), on the new Paris-Saclay University campus, in the new Henri Moissan building, and will benefit from first-rate academic and research infrastructure, while operating in a scientifically rich and stimulating environment. The IGPS is a joint research unit (UMR 8612) of the CNRS and the University of Paris-Saclay that conducts original and innovative research in the fields of micro- and nanotechnologies applied to pharmaceuticals and diagnostics in the healthcare sector. The work will be supervised by Dr Nicolas Tsapis.
