Dear all, Please, could you bring this advert to the attention of any potential candidates?
We seek an enthusiastic student to apply for calls from funding agencies for a 3-year PhD position. The PhD project focuses on the study of the structural and molecular mechanisms underlying the repressor function of nuclear receptors (le Maire et al, NSMB,2010 Jun 13). Different methods will be used : recombinant DNA technology (PCR, cloning, protein expression systems, site-directed mutagenesis), protein biochemistry (protein purification, protein analytics, crystallization of proteins), X-ray structural analysis (data collection, structure solution, model building and refinement), structure-function studies on proteins and protein complexes (fluorescence anisotropy, ...). In addition, a close cooperation with cell biologists is established. Candidates interested by this offer should contact Dr. William Bourguet (william.bourg...@cbs.cnrs.fr) at the Centre de Biochimie Structurale (CBS, http://www.cbs.cnrs.fr). The deadline for the application is July, 7th 2010. Best regards, Albane le Maire -- --- Albane le Maire http://www.cbs.cnrs.fr
