Dear all, A 3- or 4-year PhD position in Structural Biology / Biophysics / Biochemistry starting August 2015 is available at University of Oslo, Department of Biosciences, Section for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology in the Metalloprotein group. The project is in the field of structural biology, biophysics and biochemistry with an emphasis on protein crystallography and spectroscopy (UV-vis, Raman and EPR) in combination with other biochemical and biophysical methods. The project is dealing with different redox proteins involved in oxygen activation and electron transfer. The focus will be on some enzyme systems like ribonucleotide reductase and nitric oxide synthase, their reaction mechanism and redox activation pathways. More information about the project, position and application procedure is found on the website: http://uio.easycruit.com/vacancy/1352831/96323?iso=no Applicants must hold a Master's degree or equivalent in structural biology, bioinorganic chemistry, biochemistry, biophysics, protein crystallography or related fields. We are seeking a highly motivated candidate that should have skills and experience in working with proteins or bioinorganic molecules. It would be advantageous with hands-on experience within topics like cloning, protein expression, purification, crystallisation, protein crystallography, spectroscopy, bioinorganic chemistry, protein-protein interactions, enzyme kinetics and redox-, radical- and metalloproteins. Candiates without a Master's Degree have until 30 June 2015 to complete the final exam. Application deadline is 13th April 2015 through the website: http://uio.easycruit.com/vacancy/1352831/96323?iso=no For further information please contact: Dr. Hans-Petter Hersleth, ([email protected]) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hans-Petter Hersleth, PhD Project Leader, Researcher and Senior Lecturer Department of Biosciences, University of Oslo Section for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology P.O.Box 1066 Blindern, NO-0316 Oslo, Norway Phone: +47 2285 4631 Fax: +47 2285 4726 Mobile: +47 413 33 126 http://www.hersleth.org/ -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
