Dear colleagues,
below is an advert for an postdoc position in my group.
best, Marko
Applications are invited from post-doctoral scientists with expertise in protein
crystallography to join the group of Dr Marko Hyvonen
(http://www-cryst.bioc.cam.ac.uk/groups/hyvonen/) at the Department of
Biochemistry as part of a multidisciplinary drug discovery programme between the
Departments of Chemistry (Prof Chris Abell and Dr David Spring) and Biochemistry
(Dr Marko Hyvonen and Prof Tom Blundell) and the MRC Cancer Unit (Prof Ashok
Venkitaraman and Dr Grahame McKenzie) at the University of Cambridge.
Candidates must have experience in all aspects from protein crystallography from
protein expression and purification through crystallisation and structure
determination. Previous experience in high-throughput crystallography, in
scripting and automation of crystallographic work-flow is highly desirable and
background in drug discovery would also be advantageous.
Candidates must have a PhD in structural biology and relevant post-doctoral
experience is desirable, as is a track record of achievement exemplified by
academic publications and/or industrial experience. Applicants will be expected
to work closely and interactively with colleagues in different disciplines, to
have good communications skills and the ability to work under pressure to meet
deadlines.
Informal enquiries can be sent to Dr Marko Hyvonen (mh...@cam.ac.uk).
Fixed-term: The funds for this post are available for 15 months in the first
instance.
