Description

Chemical Process Research and Development Internship

Job Description
Do you want to be a leader who helps define and shape the future? Are you a game-changer?
We invite you to join our Summer Intern Team as an Intern Chemist. The objective of this internship would be to carry out competitive chemical reactions in order to characterize mixing timescales within continuous and batch reactors in CPR&D. Average mixing times are a key variable in scaling fast reactions and this data can be used to make mixing correlations with the aid of a simple mixing model. With corrections of mixing times at various geometries and scales, a scientific basis for tech transfer and scale up can be achieved in continuous reactors and some batch reactors. This would have utility in scale-up for making API to support clinical programs and future commercial production.

The output for an intern would be a report on mixing timescales in our reactors and gaining specific experience in state of the art techniques in terms of chemical reaction engineering, fluid mechanics and flow chemistry. The intern will learn general lab methodologies and associated activities involved in drug development.
