Post Doctoral Training Fellow
Section of Structural Biology, The Institute of Cancer Research

The Institute of Cancer Research (a College of the University of
London) is a world-class cancer research organization with HEFCE RAE
ratings of international excellence across all of its research
programmes. In partnership with The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation
Trust, we form the largest comprehensive cancer centre in Europe,
dedicated to research that extends from epidemiology, genetics and
molecular biology, through drug discovery and development, to cancer
diagnosis and patient treatment. This makes us uniquely placed to
work towards our vision that people may live their lives free from
the fear of cancer as a life threatening disease.

This Cancer Research UK Development Committee funded position will
provide structural biology support for the hit-to-lead development of
small molecule inhibitors of a protein kinase. The successful
applicant will determine crystal structures of the kinase bound to
small molecule inhibitors and contribute to the structure-based
design of more potent, more specific inhibitors. The project will be
carried out in the laboratory of Dr Richard Bayliss (Structural
Biology), in collaboration with chemists at the Institute (Centre for
Cancer Therapeutics), and the University of Newcastle.

Applicants must hold a PhD, or be close to completing their PhD
studies, in biochemistry, molecular biology or structural biology. An
ability to independently determine X-ray crystal structures of
proteins is essential. Experience in high-throughput crystallography
for drug discovery would be considered an asset.

The position is offered on a fixed term contract of up to two years
in the first instance with a starting salary in the range £26,597 to
£29,256 p.a. inclusive.

Informal enquires may be made to Dr Richard Bayliss (Tel: +44 (0)20
7153 5557 / Email: richard.bayliss@icr.ac.uk). Please DO NOT send
your application to Dr Bayliss; CVs must be submitted in line with
the instructions below.

For further particulars and details of how to apply, please visit our
website at www.icr.ac.uk. Alternatively you may call our 24 hour
recruitment line on 020 7153 5475 quoting reference number C137.

Closing date: 2 May 2008
