Background
Affinity chromatography is a powerful technique for the purification of biomolecules, relying on specific interactions between a target molecule and a ligand immobilized on a chromatography resin. The design of novel ligands with improved selectivity, stability, and binding efficiency is crucial for advancing purification technologies, especially in biopharmaceutical manufacturing.
Recent advances in computational chemistry and molecular modelling offer new opportunities to accelerate ligand development through in silico methods. By simulating molecular interactions and predicting binding affinities, computer-aided design can reduce experimental workload and guide the synthesis of promising ligand candidates.
This thesis project aims to explore and apply computational tools for the design of novel ligands suitable for affinity chromatography.

What You’ll Do
- Review relevant literature on ligand-target interactions and computational design strategies.
- Use molecular modelling software (e.g., AI models, docking, molecular dynamics) to simulate interactions between candidate ligands and target biomolecules.
- Evaluate ligand performance based on predicted binding affinities, specificity, and physicochemical properties.
- Propose a set of promising ligand structures for potential experimental validation (outside the scope of the thesis).
Who You Are
- Master’s student in Data Science or Engineering with experience in computational chemistry/biology, scientific data analysis and/or bioinformatics.
- Eligible for master thesis work between January 2026 – June 2026.
- Background in machine learning and structural biology is advantageous.
- Independent, structured, and curious about optimization of AI models for molecular design and multivariate analysis.
- Proficiency in python and/or R and git-based workflows.
- Experience in cloud-based computing with AWS is a plus.
