Dear all, A 4-year PhD position in Structural Biology starting August 2014 is available at University of Oslo, Department of Biosciences, Section for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. The position is funded by the Research Council of Norway and the University of Oslo. The project is dealing with different redox proteins (haem, flavin, iron-sulfur, and di-metal proteins) with a focus on flavodoxins, ferredoxins, ferredoxin/flavodoxin reductases and redox partner enzymes. The project is in the field of structural biology and biochemistry with a strong focus on protein crystallography in combination with other biochemical and biophysical methods including single-crystal spectroscopy. More information about the project, position and application procedure is found on the website: http://uio.easycruit.com/vacancy/1149343/96323?iso=no Applicants must hold a Master’s degree or equivalent in protein crystallography, structural biology, biochemistry or molecular biology. The successful applicant should have skills and experience in working with proteins. It would be advantageous with hands-on experience within topics like cloning, protein expression, purification, crystallisation, protein crystallography, spectroscopy, protein-protein interactions, enzyme kinetics, redox- and co-factor proteins and teaching. Candiates without a Master's Degree have until 30 June, 2014 to complete the final exam. Application deadline is 20th April 2014 through the website: http://uio.easycruit.com/vacancy/1149343/96323?iso=no For further information please contact: Dr. Hans-Petter Hersleth, ([email protected]) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hans-Petter Hersleth, PhD Department of Biosciences, University of Oslo Section for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology P.O.Box 1066 Blindern, NO-0316 Oslo, Norway http://www.mn.uio.no/ibv/personer/vit/hphersle/index.html -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
