Dr. Katherine S. Ryan,
I am a current postdoc researcher at the university of Texas Health
Science Center in Houston, USA since October, 2012. My Ph.D work and
postdoc work are about membrane protein structure and function using
X-ray crystallography methods. I familiar clone, protein expression,
purification, biochemical and biophysical methods, X-ray
crystallography. I am interesting in structural biology. I want to
find a lab where I can do some biochemical and biophysical work, as
well as structural biology. I heard you open a postdoc position in
your lab. I am interesting in it. Here I am emailing you my CV. Could
you please have a review? I shall look forward to hearing from you in
the near future. Thanks so much.
Best wishes,
Yibin Lin
