The candidate should have a Ph.D. in Biology or a related field (or obtain one by Summer 2011), a good publication record, expertise in molecular biology/biochemistry/microscopy/imaging data analysis/biophysics. Interested applicants should submit 1) a cover letter 2) curriculum vitae and 3) a list of three references with contact information including mailing address, phone number and e-mail address to kchuangstanford.edu and dbhayastanford.edu KC Huang, Bioengineering, Stanford, URL: http:/WhatIsLife.stanford.edu Devaki Bhaya, Carnegie Institution for Science, URL: http:/dpb.carnegiescience.edu/labs/bhaya-lab英國(guó)卡迪夫大學(xué)與利物浦大學(xué)聯(lián)合招聘博士后（2年） Funded by the HEFCW (Higher Education Funding Council for Wales) and under the EUs 7th Framework Programme, this project brings together cell biology and protein engineering approaches in a interdisciplinary effort to address stem cell replacement therapy in treating spinal cord injury. The funding is guaranteed for 2 years initially, with potential for an extension upon performance review. The successful applicant will work in both the group of Dr Olga Mayans at the Institute of Integrative Biology, University of Liverpool, UK and the group of Prof Bing Song at the Cardiff Tissue Engineering & Repair Laboratory, School of Dentistry, Cardiff University, UK. The selected applicant will primarily engage in the molecular engineering and functionalization of a protein scaffold (to be carried out in Dr Mayans' laboratory) and, subsequently, will establish its potential for neural stem cell encapsulation (at Prof. Song's laboratory). For recent work of these labs in this field see (1) Zhao et al, 2006, Nature; Meng et al., 2010, Experimental Neurology and (2) Bruning et al., 2010, Nano Letters. It is foreseen that the candidate will spend time at each laboratory according to project requirements and that (s)he will coordinate a close collaboration between both groups, including the design and management of cross-disciplinary experiments, formal reporting and meeting schedules. The project requires a strong background in the recombinant production of proteins (including their chromatographic purification) as well as in molecular biology approaches for protein engineering. An understanding of biopolymers and their applications as biomaterials is highly desirable and will be of distinct advantage. Experience in cell biology is desirable, but further training will be provided. Salary at £29853-£35646 per annum, further increments can be considered depending on experience. Applications should include a comprehensive CV and contact details for two referees.

The project is funded by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council and is a collaboration within the Astbury Centre, involving the Institute of Molecular and Cellular Biology and the School of Physics and Astronomy at University of Leeds. The post is a great opportunity for an experienced postdoctoral researcher to develop a cutting-edge research area at the interface between physical and biological sciences over an extensive work program. Having completed a PhD in an area of biophysics, physical chemistry, biochemistry or bioengineering, you will complete single molecule force spectroscopy experiments on the SAH domain constructs to determine their mechanical properties. You will use modelling and theory to develop a theoretical understanding of the SAH domains, interpret the experimental results and plan further experiments. The final goal is to determine physical and biochemical properties of SAH domains present in a number of proteins and recently found to have an important mechanical function. You will be creative, a quick-learner and able to work with custom-made instrumentation and non-standard analysis tools, in an interdisciplinary environment. Candidates should have a strong physical science background and experience of multidisciplinary research at the interface with biology would be desirable. Experience in some of the following would be advantageous; single molecule force spectroscopy, statistical mechanics of macromolecules, biomechanics, molecular dynamics simulation and soft- or condensed-matter physics. University Grade 7 (£29,972 £35,788 p.a.) depending on experience and expertise. Due to funding limitations it is likely that the appointment will not be made above £31,798 p.a.
