Dear Professor,
I am happy to introducing my self as a post doctoral student in
the Department of Chemistry, Bharathidasan University, Tiruchirapalli,
Tamil Nadu, INDIA. I would like apply for PDF in your labaratory. Last
month I have received my Ph.D degree. My Ph.D topic is "Crystallographic
studies on some molecules of pharmaceutical interest and their complexes".
I know X-ray crystallography and biochemistry very well and very much
interested to learn Protein crystallography. I have enclosed my CV for
your kind perusal. Kindly consider my application favourably.
Thanking you
Yours Sincerely
J.Justin Robert

* Title of the thesis:
Crystallographic studies on some molecules of
pharmaceutical interest and their complexes (Thesis submitted on
1st June 1998)
Awards/Fellowships:
1. International Union of Crystallography Young Scientist
Award to attend the "Xth Symposium on Organic Crystal
Chemistry" 17-21 August 1997", Poland.
2. Senior Research Fellowship (April 1997-Till date),
Council of Scientific Industrial Research, Govt. of India,
India.
3. University Grant Commission Project Assistantship
(Nov.1994- Mar. 1997) in the Career award project of Dr.P.Thomas
Muthiah, Reader in Chemistry, Bharathidasan University, India.
Broad Area of Research:
Synthesis and characterization of organic and inorganic
compounds, X-ray crystallography, metal-drug interaction, metal-
nucleic acid interaction and spectroscopy.
Areas of Research Interest:
Synthesis and crystallization of organic and
inorganic coordination compounds.
Characterizations by single crystal X-ray diffraction and
other spectroscopy methods like UV, IR, and NMR.
Structure-activity relationships, Modelling of Novel Metal
Complexes and Design
Computer exposure and other technical skills:
I have got experience with the various computer systems
such as MICRO-VAX, PCs, LAN and the operating systems like
MS-DOS, LINUX, UNIX, WINDOWS etc.
I have experience in single crystal diffraction studies
for the past four years: Data collection, reduction, and the
three-dimensional structure determination (using
Crystallographic Packages: SHELX, SIR92, XTAL, PLATON and
PARST and Molecular Graphics: ZORTEP, PLUTO, PLATON, SCHAKAL
etc.). I have also attended a workshop on X-ray
crystallography- "First Workshop on X-ray Crystallography,
University of Mysore, India)". It has given me a opportunity to
know recent advanced techniques in X-ray diffraction
studies.
I have also got experience with spectroscopy techniques:
UV, IR, and NMR (200 MHZ).
Research Experience:
After completing my M.Sc. degree in Bharathidasan University with
a first class and M.Phil. degree in Manonmanium Sundaranar University, I
have completed my Ph.D. under the guidance of Dr.P.Thomas Muthiah, Reader
in Chemistry, Bharathidasan University, Tiruchirapalli, India. I have got
training and research experience relevant to my research career through
various national and internatioanl scientific programmes. I have also got
an opportunity to attend the "Xth Symposium on Organic Crystal Chemistry,
17-21 August 1997, Poland" supported by the International Union of
Crystallography. I have been working on synthesis and X-ray
crystallography studies on some inorganic complexes. I have synthesized
Zn and Cd metal complexes and crystallized them using various
crystallzation techniques, charaterization of crystals by conventional
methods. The single crystal X-ray diffraction studies have been mainly
carried out for characterization of the compounds. I have analysed the 3-D
structures of compounds and the relevance to their properties. I have
presented ten papers in a various national and international
conferences/symposia. My thesis deals with crystal structures of some
pharmaceutically importent molecules and their metal complexes.
