dear BBers
there is a post-doc position available in my lab, funded
by the BBSRC for 3 years in the first instance, to study
the biosynthesis of the cell wall in the model bacterium,
Bacillus subtilis. the cell wall, apart from being the
target of penicillin and vancomycin, defines the shape
of the bacterial cell and provides it with a protective
outer layer. there are a host of proteins involved in
the formation of the wall, some - but not all - of which
are membrane proteins. consequently, there is an
opportunity in newcastle for a talented and dedicated
post-doc with demonstrable previous experience of the
structural biology of membrane proteins. further
particulars of this post can be found on newcastle's
vacancies website: http://www.ncl.ac.uk/vacancies/jobs/
with reference code A397R (ICAMB). please apply for
the post by following the instructions on the website,
the closing date for which is 25th may 2009.
please also note that in addition to the post in my lab,
there is a second post available, funded on the same
grant, in the lab of richard daniel for someone with
a more biological focus. applicants to me should
specify that they are applying for 'post 2'.
cheers
rick
