PhD student for studies on protein dynamics at Linnaeus University
PhD student for studies on protein dynamics at Linnaeus University
Overview
Linnaeus University is the result of a merger between Kalmar University and Växjö University. Together we will be creating a new, exciting university with 31 000 students and 2 000 employees. Linnaeus University will be a modern, international university in the Småland region of Sweden, where people can grow to reach their potential. For more information see: Lnu.se.
The School of Natural Sciences is part of the Faculty of Science and Engineering. The research activities within this multidisciplinary school include the areas of Biochemistry, Biotechnology, Biomedical Sciences, Organic Chemistry, Marine Ecology and Microbiology. The research group of Computational Chemistry and Biochemistry now seeks a PhD student for studies on protein dynamics.
The research project will deal with amyloid protein aggregation. This process is common to numerous devastating diseases, including Alzheimer`s and Parkinson`s diseases and type II diabetes mellitus. The student will be involved in computational studies of amyloid aggregation. The selected PhD student will have unique opportunities to gain deep knowledge and skills in applying computational chemistry methods to biological macromolecules. Methods to be used include molecular dynamics simulations and quantum mechanical calculations. For relevant publications, see: J. Mol. Biol., 387 407–415 (2009) and J. Phys. Chem. Lett., 1 471–474 (2010). Further details on the group are given in the group`s web-page: http://lnu.se/research-groups/computational-chemistry-and-biochemistry-group?l=en
Applicants should have a Masters Degree (240hp/240ECTS) in a subject area of relevance for the present project. Documented training and experience of Computational Chemistry, Computational Biology, Physical Chemistry or a related area is a prerequisite. Written and oral communication skills in English are also essential. The student will need to have, or obtain in little time, working knowledge of the linux operating system. Experience with MD simulations, quantum chemistry packages, system administration, programming and/or high performance computer systems will be an advantage.

A Faculty Research Fellowship is a career development post that provides an opportunity to develop a personal profile of research and publication while working collaboratively with outstanding researchers in the following area: Cancer, palliative and end-of-life care (one post).
This research career development post is designed to provide an opportunity to develop a personal research plan, gain external funding and publish high quality papers. You will be expected to contribute to teaching in your specialist areas (around 30%). The post is for five years with the expectation that you will become an independent researcher of national/international repute.
You will be working at postdoctoral level and beginning to build a portfolio of publications and grant income. You will receive professorial mentorship, support from expert collaborators within the research groups and access to specialist laboratory and technical facilities (as appropriate).
If you would like to discuss this post informally please contact Evelyne Anthony by email: ea@soton.ac.uk who will arrange for you to speak to the relevant professor.
