A BBSRC-funded PhD position is available in our group at the University of Sheffield (UK), to study the structure and mechanism of bacterial appendages involved in P. aeruginosa virulence and biofilm formation, using cryo-EM combined with other cool biophysics toys (microfluidics, super-resolution fluorescence microscopy etc..).

The University of Sheffield is equipped with an Arctica microscope with Falcon III direct-electron detector. You can find out more about our bioimaging facility here: http://www.imagine-imaginglife.com/facilities.html
