EPSRC Funded Postgraduate Research Studentship
Written by Administrator
Monday, 06 February 2006
Controlling membrane proteins through manipulation of the membrane
Departments of Chemistry and Biology
An EPSRC funded PhD studentship is available as part of a
new project focusing on the effect of physical properties
of lipid bilayers on embedded membrane proteins. The
successful applicant will become involved in an exciting
cross disciplinary project which will involve chemical
synthesis of novel photoactive lipids, preparation and
biochemical characterization of membrane proteins and
analysis of membranes and membrane proteins using the newly
installed NMR spectrometer in Hull. The student will also
get the opportunity to carry out high field NMR
measurements at the University of Frankfurt.
The successful applicant will have a good BSc or Masters
degree in chemistry, microbiology, biochemistry, biophysics
or related disciplines. Applicants with a background in
physics or biology are encouraged if they can demonstrate
an interest in bridging disciplines.
The student's stipend is £12,300 per annum (tax free) plus
income from laboratory demonstrations. It is preferred
that the studentship will commence in September 2006,
however alternative starting dates can be negotiated. UK
citizens are eligible for full funding. EU citizens will
have tuition fees funded. Non-EU citizens are not eligible.
