Dear all, We have extended the deadline for the studentship and will now consider applications as they are received with no fixed closing dates. I will be very grateful if you could pass this on to any potentially interested candidates.
We have a fully funded four year PhD studentship available from October 2022, as a joint project between Diamond Light Source (Mike Hough and Robin Owen) and the University of Essex (Jonathan Worrall). The project will involve the application of time resolved crystallography to study enzyme reactions and mechanisms in multifunctional heme enzymes. Reactions will be followed in crystals using spectroscopic approaches to identify appropriate time points and monitor reactions. There will be extensive opportunities to use XFEL and synchrotron serial crystallography beamlines and to carry out complementary biochemical and spectroscopic work. Work at Diamond will primarily be at beamlines VMXi and I24 with around two years of the project being based at Diamond. We have an ongoing collaboration with the SACLA XFEL and conduct regular experiments there, with other XFEL sources potentially be used as required for the project. Details are available here: https://www.diamond.ac.uk/Careers/Students/Studentships/2022-projects/2022-STU0436.html where you can also find application details. There is no fixed closing dates although shortlisting and interviews will be carried out when suitable candidates have been identified. I'd be grateful if BB members could pass this onto any potentially interested candidates and/or advertise locally Informal enquiries can come to me (michael.ho...@diamond.ac.uk<mailto:michael.ho...@diamond.ac.uk>), or to either Robin Owen (robin.o...@diamond.ac.uk<mailto:robin.o...@diamond.ac.uk>) or Jonathan Worrall (jworr...@essex.ac.uk<mailto:jworr...@essex.ac.uk>).
