PhD in Polymer Chemistry and Biocatalysis (M/F)

Apply by 7 May via the CNRS careers portal. The PhD is scheduled to begin on 1 October 2026.

The project forms part of a unique interdisciplinary framework, involving close collaboration between the Laboratory of Colloid Chemistry, Polymers and Complex Assemblies (Softmat) and the Toulouse Biotechnology Institute (TBI).

PhD Topic

This project aims to gain a better understanding of polymer–enzyme interactions by focusing on an original class of structurally controlled polymers, specifically designed for enzymatic degradation. The project will involve the synthesis of polymers, the production and modelling of enzymes, advanced analysis of degradation products, as well as in-depth exploration and optimisation of operating conditions.
