jobdetails You will be responsible for conducting research directed to developing creative solutions to
synthetic organic chemistry problems across a portfolio of projects. In the Discovery Process
Research (DPR) team, we focus on developing new synthetic organic transformations. The
DPR team operates across a portfolio of projects at the interface of the discovery and ...development space, from lead identification through the selection of drug candidates. The
group facilitates medicinal chemistry research by finding solutions to synthetic bottlenecks,
enabling access to novel chemical space, and translating chemistry innovations to the development of efficient routes for the synthesis of small molecule drug
candidates advancing into development.
The API Process Research and Development (PRD) team generates creative and innovative
ways towards new synthetic routes and solutions that enable large scale manufacturing of
target Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients. Process chemists and engineers team up with
analysts, crystallization, and safety experts to design the best manufacturing process. These
teams work closely together with the pilot plants and bridge with commercial production.
New chemical processes are developed meeting stringent requirements concerning safety,
environment, technology, economy, and quality. As a result of these endeavours, drug
candidates are accelerated through the development pipeline by enabling sufficient supplies of
active ingredient in support of clinical trials, registration and finally commercialization.
In both the DPR as well as the PRD teams, internship positions are available with the focus on
synthetic organic chemistry. This vacancy text serves as general description for several
possible internship positions.

jouw aanbod

Mentored by an industry expert, you will contribute to the development of synthetic routes
towards organic molecules in the context of a drug discovery project. The ultimate goal is to
contribute to delivering synthetic methods that enable medicinal chemistry activities in
finding novel drug candidate molecules (=diversity-oriented approaches), or provide methods
that enable a more efficient, scalable, green and sustainable production of selected compounds
(=target-oriented approaches). In both contexts, you will have the chance to contribute to the
improvement of patients¿ lives.
Responsibilities and duties:
- Work together with a group of highly motivated scientists in a pioneering laboratory in
the J&J chemistry department.
- Participate in active drug development programs.
- Evaluate synthetic methods to support the structure-activity-relationship (SAR) studies
or evaluate and optimize synthetic steps to enable best process chemistry.
- After an initial training and introduction in the department, able to independently
operate (under supervision) and propose alternatives or solutions for challenging
synthetic routes.
Qualifications:
- Strong theoretical and practical background in organic synthesis.
- Experience with analysis techniques like LC-MS and HNMR.
- Highly motivated and open attitude to operate and learn in a dynamic
scientific environment, both independent and as part of a team.
- Fast learner, independent & critical thinker.
- Able to efficiently work with common software packages like
Office 365, SciFinder, ChemDraw, ¿

We provide an allowance per worked day, to cover for your daily
expenses. Additional support for housing opportunities is available depending on the
distance to campus. By participation in trainings and events you will be able to
broaden your expertise and knowledge.
Requirement & How to apply for this position:
The candidate must be a registered student for the entire course of the internship.
Unfortunately, graduates that are currently not enrolled in a study program are not eligible for
this internship.
If you are interested in applying for this challenging internship, please send an e-mail to ra-
[email protected], including your resume and a short motivation.
Note: AN INTERNSHIP CAN ONLY START IF YOUR SCHOOL AGREES TO SIGN THE
STANDARDIZED INTERNSHIP CONTRACT OF J&J BELGIUM. We cannot accept
external contracts from the schools. Please, check this with your school BEFORE applying for
an internship position.
