Non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are emerging pathogens posing serious global health concerns. The most problematics NTM lung infections are caused by Mycobacterium abscessus and Mycobacterium avium. Both bacteria are naturally resistant to many antibiotics. Due to the absence of a standardized drug regimen, NTM infections often result in intractable lung diseases.

We are developing new sterilizing drugs and drug regimens for NTM infections coupled with innovative delivery modality based on nanoparticle formulations.

The incumbent will develop novel antibiotics and antibiotics formulation for oral and intranasal drug delivery.

Job responsibilities:

  • Involved in chemical biology efforts to identify new drugs targeting NTMs and in the development of coformulation for aerosol and oral drug delivery.
  • Drug screening and advanced formulation.

Skills and qualifications:

  • Bachelor degree from top reputable universities in Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, Chemistry, or Chemical Biology.
