Overview
A position exists for a PhD student in the Cambridge Systems Biology Centre to study protein movements in Escherichia coli that are the results of signalling events. The aim is to test the hypothesis that these movements improve the accuracy and speed of signal transduction in cells. This dynamic process will be studied by advanced fluorescent microscopy in combination with computational simulations to analyse the data and create predictive models.
The ideal candidate will be a life science graduate with some experience in quantitative microscopy and molecular biology and a strong interest in computational modelling, but applicants from a physical sciences or engineering background with an interest in biology will also be considered. The project can start at any date from now until October 2010.
Target Candidates
The studentship is open to all nationals, but only includes fees at the home/EU rate. It offers a tax free maintenance grant at standard BBSRC rates, currently 13,290 per year, for three years.
How to apply
Applications should contain a PD18 (which can be downloaded from www.admin.cam.ac.uk/offices/hr/forms/ ) the names and addresses of three referees and a CV, and should be sent quoting reference PH06181 by 17 February 2010 to Dr. Karen Lipkow, KL280@cam.ac.uk (phone: +44-1223-760260).
