Overview
This EPSRC-funded studentship will involve developing molecular dynamics and/or Monte-Carlo simulations of an ion-channel, explicitly including a relatively small patch of surrounding membrane and exterior water.
A fully-funded 3.5 year EPSRC project studentship is open for applications from 1st November 2009. Due to funding restrictions, only candidates from the UK or EU are eligible for full support (stipend and tuition fees at the UK/EU rate).
The involvement of this project
The work will lead to a PhD in Engineering supervised by Dr Igor Khovanov (department of Engineering) and will involve close collaboration with Prof M. P. Allen (department of Physics) and Prof P. M. Rodger (department of Chemistry) through the Centre for Scientific Computing. The successful applicant will have the opportunity to get involved with the state-of-the-art computational techniques, in particular molecular dynamics, as well as with high-performance parallel computing.
The project will also involve close collaboration with both Lancaster University and Rush Medical Centre in Chicago, as well as the analysis of experimental data from Oxford, Rush, Groningen, and Chapel Hill. There will be opportunities for travel to conferences and between the participating centres.
Eligibility Requirements
Applicants must have a good honours degree in Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Engineering, Computer Science or similar. You should also have a strong interest in computer simulations and program development.
How to apply
Potential applicants should contact to Dr Igor Khovanov (i.khovanov@warwick.ac.uk) telephone +44(0) 24 765 22600
