PX Jobs Team Leader, Postdoc, Tech (SGC-Oxford).txt
My group has several vacancies to fill immediately: a Team Leader for Infrastructure and Methods Development; two postdoc positions; and a technician. This is the Protein Crystallography group of the Structural Genomics Consortium, Oxford. For details, please see respectively: Team Leader: http://www.sgc.ox.ac.uk/jobs/07057.html Postdocs: http://www.sgc.ox.ac.uk/jobs/07058.html Technician: http://www.sgc.ox.ac.uk/jobs/07067.html Feel free to contact me for details. The remit of the Structural Genomics Consortium (SGC) is to solve human proteins of medical relevance and place them in the public domain without restrictions; it is funded by a consortium of public and industrial funders, and has independently operating sites in Oxford and Toronto Universities and Karolinska Institutet (Stockholm). The Oxford site solved nearly 200 such structures in its first three years, and has now entered Phase II, with 4 years of funding till June 2011; it now has an increased emphasis on chemical biology and membrane proteins. The Protein Crystallography group collaborates tightly with the 5 other groups to get their purified proteins crystallized and solved -- five per month, to be precise. As importantly, with all the robotics and toys you'd care for, and access not only to stacks of real, interesting samples but also to heaps of structured data accumulated during Phase I, we're ideally positioned for development and testing of crystallographic methods, which will be the major scientific thrust of the group in this phase. Enthusiastic crystallographers, especially those that really enjoy the nuts and bolts of the technique and mucking around with tricks and toys, both crystallization and algorithms, are encouraged to apply. phx.
