Walk-in or skype interview for the post of a Project Assistant in a research project funded by the Wellcome Trust/DBT intermediate fellowship
Title: Cloning, expression and purification of mammalian proteins involved in cell-adhesion
This project aims to clone, express and purify long-chain molecules involved in cell-adhesion for structural and biophysical studies
We are an interdisciplinary research group who use single molecule techniques to understand biology quantitatively. To know more about our research interests, please visit our web-page.
Positions: One
Duration: One year and extendable up to 2 years upon evaluation. Candidates may need to travel to Germany for using Synchrotron facilities.
Emoluments: As per IISER Mohali
