MSc Scholarships 2008, Alta Scuola Politecnica (ASP), Italy
The Alta Scuola Politecnica (hereafter indicated as ASP) is launching
a call for applications addressed to young talents who want to develop
their interdisciplinary capabilities for leading and promoting
innovation.
Founded by Politecnico di Milano and Politecnico di Torino, the ASP
may be attended only by talents who enrol in one of their programmes
of laurea specialistica (hereafter indicated as LS) in Engineering,
Architecture or Design. The ASP, through a highly selective process,
gives up to 150 promising students the opportunity to participate in
an additional advanced programme that runs in parallel to the LS
programmes.
ASP students complement the knowledge achieved in their specific LS
with a multifaceted and enriched understanding of innovation processes
and contexts. They develop an interdisciplinary attitude to conceive,
plan, implement and promote complex innovation projects that produce
sustainable progress in economy, society and culture.
The ASP is characterised by a multidisciplinary and multicultural
community of students and professors, a prominent international
Faculty, advanced seminars and study projects in close cooperation
with business enterprises and governmental institutions.

PhD Position in DNA Replication - MRC Clinical Science Center, UK
The MRC-CSC in cooperation with the Imperial College is offering a
3 year PhD program.
Research projects in the DNA Replication group center on the biochemical reconstitution of DNA replication processes in yeast. Therefore we initially purify proteins from bacteria, yeast or insect cells and then test for their activity using DNA binding methods (Gel-shift, DNAseI footprint, Biacore) or characterizedfor protein-protein interactions (GST-pulldown,glycerol-gradient, IP).
The proteins also tested for enzymatic activity e.g. ATPase or helicase activity and finally we determine the structure of these proteins using electron microscopy or crystallography. We aim to uncover the functions and mechanism used during DNA replication. These steps are conserved between yeast and human and represent novel anti-cancer targets. For more details and to see our publications please visit our website at:
DNA Replication http://dnareplication.csc.mrc.ac.uk/
We seek highly motivated candidates who enjoy working in a competitive, stimulating, fun and truly international environment. The Institute is well funded, has several facilities and fully equipped with top-of–the line instrumentation.
We are looking for candidates that have a very strong academic background, good lab experience (ideally biochemistry) and
proficiency in English. Candidates must apply with a complete English CV with detailed description of their laboratory
experience etc.
The position is for 3 years and the start date is October 1st 2008.
