Sructural basis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis persistence


Monash University, Melbourne, Australia
Application deadline: 31 Aug 2018


There is an exciting opportunity to do a PhD co-supervised by Dr. Chris Greening and myself at Monash University, Melbourne. The project will investigate the structural basis for persistence in Mycobacterium tuberculosis, through the structural characterisation of the F420 biosynthesis pathway. This multidisciplinary project will combine structural techniques (crystallography, cryo-EM), with biophysics, biochemistry and microbiology. 

As well as being situated in Melbourne the worlds most liveable city, Monash University is within walking distance of the Australian Synchrotron and is home to a cutting edge Cryo-EM microscope facility. Making it a great place to do structural biology. 

Interested candidates should send their CV, academic transcript, and a brief outline of research interests and motivation to chris.greening@monash.edu
