FULLY FUNDED STUDENTSHIP IN CHEMICAL BIOLOGY AVAILABLE FOR OCTOBER 2007



A fully funded PhD studentship is available for October 2007 start (to cover stipend, approx £13,000 per annum, and fees, approx £3000 per annum) in the area of chemical biology. It is a multidisciplinary project and will be jointly supervised by Professor Emma Raven (Department of Chemistry) and Dr Peter Moody (Department of Biochemistry). The successful applicant will join an active collaborative research environment working at the chemistry/biology interface and the project will provide the successful applicant with an opportunity to interact with other biochemists and molecular biologists within the Centre for Chemical Biology at Leicester.

The project will be based in the new £22m Henry Wellcome Building for Biomedical Research and will involve an examination of transient catalytic intermediates in a heme-containing protein and will use structural, spectroscopic and kinetic techniques. There will be opportunities to interact with other groups in the Henry Wellcome Building and outside of Leicester, including frequent visits to synchrotron facilities in this country and abroad. You will be joining an active group of postdoctoral and postgraduate researchers working on various aspects of heme biochemistry and mechanism and will be exposed to a range of techniques and methodologies spanning the chemistry/biochemistry/molecular biology areas. The project would suit an ambitious individual looking to expand their expertise at the chemistry/biology interface. Prof Raven's and Dr Moody's laboratories are situated in the brand new £22m Henry Wellcome Building for Biomedical Research. We can offer state-of-the-art infrastructure to support your work and laboratories that are equipped to the highest standard. For further information on the range of activities on-going in both laboratories please visit the respective web sites (http://www.le.ac.uk/chemistry/staff/el10.html and http://www.le.ac.uk/biochem/staff/pcem1/pcem1.html ).


How to apply


Candidates should have, or expect to obtain, a first or upper second class degree in chemistry, biochemistry or a related discipline or equivalent. The position is open to UK or EU nationals.

Interested applicants may contact Prof Emma Raven or Dr Peter Moody for further information. To apply, please send CV plus details of two referees.
