GRADUATE RESEARCH ASSISTANT FELLOWSHIP AVAILABLE
____________________________________________
A graduate research assistant fellowship from the Deutsche
Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) is currently available to study the
molecular mechanisms of temperature signalling in plant-bacteria
interactions. We are seeking a highly motivated individual who wants
to work on protein-membrane interactions at the molecular level. A
membrane associated histidine protein kinase, CorS, will be studied
using in vitro lipid bilayer techniques (for more detailed information
see http://www.uni-marburg.de/mpi/ullrich/ullrich.htlm). The position
will be funded for a total of three years giving the successful
candidate the chance to acquire the PhD degree. The candidate should
have an MS degree in biology, biochemistry, chemistry, molecular
biology, or a related biomedical research field with excellent
university certificates and should not be older than 27 years. The Max
Planck Institute for terrestrial Microbiology is a well-funded
research facility located in Marburg, Germany. Please forward your
letter of application, CV, transcripts, and one letter of
recommendation to:
