Study Subject: History of the Polish School of Medicine in Edinburgh
Employer: School of History, Classics and Archaeology Graduate Study
Level: Doctoral
Scholarship Description: The Polish School of Medicine was established in Edinburgh in 1941 in the wake of German occupation of Poland and trained over 300 men and women in a comprehensive undergraduate medical education programme. Clinical teaching took place at the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh and other hospitals including the Paderewski Memorial Hospital, which was opened in 1941 at the Western General Hospital. The history and celebration of the Polish School of Medicine has given rise to an extensive archive of documents and photographs that is housed in the Edinburgh University Centre for Research Collections and is largely un-catalogued.
The PSM 70th Anniversary Doctoral Project, starting in September 2011, will be based in the School of History, Classics and Archaeology with funding from the School of History, Classics and Archaeology, the College of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine and the Polish School of Medicine Historical Collection Fund. It will be part supervised from the EU Centre for Research Collections and will include, from the second year, the student’s involvement in the cataloguing of the PSM paper archive.

Scholarship Application Deadline: 31 March 2011

One Postdoctoral and one PhD Position in Over-Expression, Biochemistry and Structure of Membrane Transport Proteins, Switzerland

/ January 6, 2011 Leave a Comment

Our vision is to assess the structure, supramolecular organization and dynamics of membrane transport proteins by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and X-ray crystallography (XRC). To this end, we clone, over-express, purify and crystallize transport proteins in 2- (2D) and 3-dimensions (3D). 2D crystals are analyzed by TEM/electron crystallography and AFM, while 3D crystals by XRC. Tasks of the successful candidates will involve cloning, over-expression and purification of pro- and eukaryotic membrane transport proteins for functional and structural studies. Our work is part of the National Centre of Competence in Research (NCCR) TransCure – From transport physiology to identification of therapeutic targets.

Required qualifications The Postdoc / Ph.D. candidate should have a Ph.D. / Master degree in molecular biology or biochemistry. Experience with the over-expression in bacteria and yeast, and with the biochemistry of membrane proteins is compulsory. Experience with transmission electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy or X-ray crystallography would be an advantage.
Scholarship Application Deadline: January 2011
