Dear CCP4bb, The following three studentship positions are available immediately at the University of Liverpool. Could you please pass these details on to any students in your departments or elsewhere who may be interested? Replies to the email addresses listed below, rather than to me please.
Thanks, Mike School of Biological Sciences, University of Liverpool 4-year joint BBSRC PhD Studentships – applications invited immediately Three PhD studentships are available in the Molecular Biophysics Group for research in the area of x-ray structural biology using the most advanced synchrotron radiation sources and the new light sources in the form of x-ray free electron lasers (XFELs). The studentships involve collaborations with scientists at the DIAMOND Light Source, UK and at the RIKEN Spring-8 Center, Japan. The successful candidates will have the exciting opportunity of spending up to 2 years at these premier science facilities working at the leading edge of structural biology. We are looking for applications now from highly committed and motivated graduates from any of the natural sciences who are ordinarily resident in the UK.
