Post-Doctoral Opportunity in Oulu, Finland
A post-doctoral opportunity, funded by the Sigrid Juselius
Foundation, exists in our group for an initial period of
approximately 1 year, with possible extension. The work will involve
structural studies on proteins important for the function of the
human nervous system, mainly proteins from the myelin sheath.
The successful candidate will have extensive hands-on experience on
at least some of the following: large-scale expression and
purification of recombinant proteins, membrane protein purification
and characterisation, protein crystallisation, X-ray crystallography,
small-angle X-ray scattering. Any further relevant experience will
also be considered an asset. A large number of ready-to-use
expression clones for the target proteins exists in the lab.
The University of Oulu is the largest university in Northern Finland.
The Department of Biochemistry is fully equipped for protein
structural biology work, and we have frequent access to European
synchrotrons for data collection.
To apply, please send me an email with a full CV (including list of
publications) plus the contact details of at least two scientists for
references.
More information can be found at www.biochem.oulu.fi/kursula.
Informal queries by email are also welcome.
Best regards,
Petri
