Postdoctoral Fellowship Auckland

C at the University of Auckland, New Zealand

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral research fellow to work on an exciting project funded by a NZ Royal Society Marsden grant. The project will focus on the use of solution-state NMR spectroscopy to investigate how protein dynamics facilitates the assembly of a cytokine signaling complex involved in the immune response and inflammation.

Candidates should hold a PhD in biomolecular solution-state NMR spectroscopy. Demonstrated strengths in protein expression and purification and skills in computer data analysis and modeling are desirable. Experience in characterising protein dynamics by NMR spectroscopy would be an advantage.

This is a fixed term full-time position for two years with a start date in mid-2009.

Interested applicants are encouraged to make informal enquiries to Dr Andrew Dingley. The closing date for applications is the 26th of March, 2009. Applicants should email/send their applications including CV with the names and the contact details of three referees to:
