[ccp4bb] BBSRC-funded PDRA in CryoEM at University of Leeds

[Chi Trinh]

On behalf of Professor Neil Ranson (Director of EM, Astbury BioStructure 
Laboratory)


Dear All,

A new 3-year BBSRC-funded position in my lab is now available. The project is 
to work on high resolution structures of new plant viruses using the state of 
the art cryo-EM facilities with the Astbury Centre for Structural Molecular 
Biology at the University of Leeds.

We hope that the project will generate a number of novel, near-atomic 
resolution structures, and it would therefore benefit from extensive experience 
of model building. As such, while I'd ideally like cryo-EM experience, the 
position would also be suitable for a good X-ray crystallographer with the 
drive and commitment to learn cryo-EM.

For more info, including a candidate brief and info on the Astbury Centre:

Please feel free to get in touch to discuss the position informally.

KR,
Neil Ranson

[ccp4bb] No longer available: Sanyo Incubator MIR 553 and Cartesian Honeybee System

[Chi Trinh]

Thank you for all the emails expressing interests for both the Incubator and 
the Cartesian robot.

The items are no longer available and have been earmarked for two groups in 
academic institutes.

Best wishes,
Chi

[ccp4bb] Free: Sanyo Incubator MIR 553 and Cartesian Honeybee System

[Chi Trinh]

Dear All,

As part of our X-ray facility refurbishment and due to lack of space we have 
two pieces of kit to give away free of charge.


1: Sanyo Heated and Cooled Incubator, Model MIR 553. The incubator is in 
perfect working order.

2: Cartesian Honeybee System for protein crystallization from Genomic Solutions.


If anyone is interested in the one or both items, please can you drop me an 
email for further information.

Regards,
Chi
