The  Max Planck Institute for Molecular Physiology, Dortmund
     invites applications for a Postdoctoral position in
                Kinetic Crystallography
A post-doctoral fellowship is availabe in the Department of 
Physical Biochemistry. The aim is to study the enzymatic mechanism 
of tryptophan synthase. The work is interdisciplinary providing 
opportunities to apply (and learn) techniques of time-resolved
crystallography and possibly of transient enzyme kinetics.
Applicants must have a strong background in biochemistry and
experience in protein crystallography. Previous work using 
transient enzyme kinetics would be a big asset.
The successful applicant will join an international group.
The Max Planck Society is an equal opportunity employer. The project
is funded by the BMBF for initially 2 years. The salary is up to 
BAT Ib depending on experience.
For details of the post please contact me informally.
To apply please submit a full CV with names and addresses of two referees
