[ccp4bb] PhD student position at the Max-Delbrueck Center in Berlin

[Oliver Daumke]

We are looking for a PhD student with Master’s degree to explore 
structure and function of G-Proteins and their interaction with 
membranes. The project will include X-ray crystallographic studies and 
biochemical experiments including liposome binding and deformation 
studies by electron microscopy, nucleotide binding and hydrolysis 
assays, and also some cell biology - have a look at our recent 
publications for the research we are interested in. We are located at 
the Max-Delbrueck Center in north of Berlin (Helmholtz institute) and 
are well equipped with two FPLC and one HPLC system, large scale 
bacteria shakers, two X-ray rotating anode with MAR imaging plates, two 
pipetting robots and an extensive crystal imaging system. Furthermore, 
synchrotron radiation is available in close proximity at BESSY in the 
south of Berlin.

For further information please contact me ([EMAIL PROTECTED] 
<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>), or send me your application 
including CV and addresses of two possible referees.

Thanks a lot,
