Dear all, Please find a job advertisement posted on behalf of Adrian Goldman: Structural and functional studies of neurotrophic factors and their receptor complexes. The Goldman and Saarma laboratories are looking for a postdoctoral fellow to continue studies of GDNF receptor complexes, following on their recent determination of the structure of GFRa1 (EMBO J, 23, 1452). Binding and cell-biological assays will be used to determine the relevant complexes, and structures will be solved by x-ray crystallography. The project is part of a long-standing investigation into neurotrophic factors. You should have a Ph. D. and relevant expertise in biochemistry, molecular/neurobiology and/or x-ray crystallography. Experience in expressing mammalian proteins in insect cells is considered a bonus. The monthly salary will depend on qualifications and experience, and the prevailing salary scale at the University of Helsinki. The application should include a complete cv including your education and previous degrees obtained, prior research experience, publication list and contact information for at least two referees. The application should be sent to Adrian Goldman, Institute of Biotechnology, PL 65 (Vii kinkaari 1), FIN-00014 University of Helsinki. The closing date of the application period is 1 November 2006, but the position will remain unfilled until a suitable candidate is found. For more information please contact Adrian Goldman, +358 9 191 58923, [EMAIL PROTECTED] More information about the Institute of Biotechnology is available at www.biocenter.helsinki.fi/bi/.
