Imperial College London: Post-doc in structural biology of bacterial toxins A postdoctoral position is available for a project involving the characterisation of toxins from Clostridium difficile, a bacterial pathogen that causes antibiotic associated diarrhoea in humans. We already have E. coli clones expressing domains of the toxin, and some preliminary crystallographic data. Experience in crystallographic methods is highly desirable. Additional experience in molecular biology methods would be preferable, but we can train you. You will join Dr Fairweather's multidisciplinary group investigating various aspects of bacterial pathogenesis, and work alongside Dr Katherine Brown's protein analysis and crystallography group. Both researchers are in the centre for Microbiology and Infection (www.imperial.ac.uk/cmmi), where further details can be found. The position is available immediately, for at least 28 months, on the salary scale £22,870 - £33,330 depending on age and experience. Please note that some replies to our previous advert were inadvertently lost. So if you have applied previously and you are still interested, please reapply! Applications, including a c.v. and the details of two referees, should be sent to Dr Neil Fairweather ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) or Dr Katherine Brown ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
