bacterial pathogenesis, in a collaborative project involving several other
groups at the University of Queensland, Griffith University and University
of Adelaide. Experience in molecular biology, protein purification,
macromolecular crystallography and protein/protein interaction analysis is
desirable.
The salary will be according to qualifications and experience, starting at
AUD$62,807. The position is available from January 2010.
University of Queensland is one of Australia's top universities. SCMB
