A PhD scholarship in Lipid-mediated signalling is available in the group of Associate Professor Nils J. Færgeman, Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, University of Southern Denmark. The position is to be filled by 15 October 2009 or soon thereafter.
We are seeking a candidate interested in understanding how lipids act as signalling molecules and how lipids regulate cellular signalling pathways. The project aims to characterize how perturbations in lipid metabolism affect cellular signalling cascades and protein modifications in mammalian cells and in model organisms. The work will include use of genetic and biochemical techniques in combination with state of the art mass spectrometric instrumentation.
The scholarship is available for students with four years of academic studies within biochemistry, molecular biology and/or biomedicine. Applicants with prior experience in molecular genetics, lipid biochemistry and with C. elegans are preferred. The applicant will be enrolled within the 4+4 PhD programme at the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, University of Southern Denmark.
Application Deadline: 15 September, 2009 at 12 noon
