Postdoctoral Fellowship in Integral Membrane Receptors at University of Copenhagen, Denmark

/ May 11, 2011 Leave a Comment

The Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Protein Research & The Novo Nordisk center for Basic Metabolic Research, is recruiting a post doctoral fellow for a time-limited 2-year project to work on Integral Membrane Receptors. The starting date is 1 September 2011, or as soon as possible thereafter.The postholder will work in an interdisciplinary team with members from both the CPR and from the section for Metabolic Receptology at the CBMR and with outreach to International Research Alliance partners.

The research will focus on structure functional aspects of a novel family of membrane receptors and will involve expression, purification and functional characterization of receptors and their domains. Extensions of the project will involve structural characterization of the receptors and their protein domains. You will at the centers work closely together with researchers focusing on a number of different cell biological aspects of this receptor family as well as molecular pharmacological and computational chemistry/biology aspects.

Wellcome Trust-Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Postdoctoral Fellowships: Biology, Medicine and Mathematics, Engineering, Computer, Physical or Chemical Sciences

/ May 11, 2011 Leave a Comment

The fellowships provide four years’ support for recently qualified postdoctoral researchers to gain experience of research at the interfaces between biology/medicine and mathematics, engineering, computer, physical or chemical sciences.
These awards are open to individuals with a relevant connection to the European Economic Area. If you are currently training or working in an academic or research institution in the United States, you are not eligible to apply to this scheme. You should be about to submit your doctoral thesis or have up to, but no more than, three years’ postdoctoral experience from date of your PhD viva to the deadline for applications to the scheme.Time spent outside the research environment will be taken into consideration.
You may have a background in any appropriate field of study (e.g. biology or medicine or chemistry or physics) but you must propose to address an important biomedical research question.The proposed research should fall within the Wellcome Trust’s normal funding remit.

Scholarship Application Deadline: 1 July 2011
