  • $$  Salary of approximately 30,800 DKK/month (around 4,100 EUR) plus pension

The University of Copenhagen is offering three-year PhD fellowship in solid state pharmacy, commencing on June 15, 2025, or as soon as possible thereafter. The fellowship focuses on addressing challenges in oral drug development, particularly improving the solubility and bioavailability of poorly water-soluble drugs. The project aims to explore amorphous drug formulations, investigating their stability and solubility using a combination of experimental and computational techniques.

To be eligible for the fellowship program, applicants must hold a master’s degree equivalent to a Danish master’s degree in solid-state pharmacy, pharmaceutical manufacturing, drug formulation, or a related field. They should have relevant research experience, a strong academic record, and a keen interest in amorphous drug formulation and characterization techniques.

Founded in 1479, the University of Copenhagen (UCPH) is Denmark’s oldest and largest university, consistently ranked among the top universities in Europe. It is renowned for its high-quality research and education across a wide range of disciplines, including health sciences, natural sciences, social sciences, and humanities. With a strong emphasis on innovation and international collaboration, UCPH provides a dynamic academic environment, state-of-the-art research facilities, and partnerships with leading institutions worldwide.
