Job Details
Location: Bristol, UK
We seek a motivated individual to undertake a research programme aimed at the development of self-contained membrane encapsulated nano-reactors with useful and / or novel properties. You will undertake a series of experiments involving the production, purification, and functional reconstitution of a number of membrane proteins. The goal will be in the development of a nano-reactor capable of small molecule transport (import / efflux) for subsequent detection / degradation / modification etc. For instance, we are interested in the design and production of an encapsulated vesicle containing specific transporters that will enable the screening of small molecules for use against the burgeoning problem of Anti-microbial resistance (AMR)
The project is part of one theme of Bristol Synthetic Biology and will involve extensive collaboration with postdocs and PIs within our own stream and across the entire centre.
Applicants should have a PhD in Biochemistry or a related discipline relevant to the project.
For informal enquires please contact Ian Collinson at Ian.Collinson@bristol.ac.uk or Dr Mike Jones at M.R.Jones@bristol.ac.uk
Closing date for applications is midnight Sunday 2 October 2016
