PhD studentship in Computational Investigation of Drug Resistant Mutations in the Kinases

Highlights:
1. Kinase proteins are intimately involved in cell signalling, and in many cases mutations to these proteins are involved in the development of cancers.

2. This studentship is funded by the EPSRC and AstraZeneca (AZ), and will be supported by direct access to relevant experimental data available through AZ. The project will be supervised by Prof Jonathan Essex at the University of Southampton, together with a senior scientist from AZ. You will be joining an established research team working in the area of applying and developing computer simulation methods to biological problems.

3. Applicants should have, or expect to receive shortly, a good degree in chemistry, physics, biochemistry, or a relevant discipline, and a keen interest in molecular modelling. Please contact Dr Richard A Ward (richard.a.ward@astrazeneca.com ) for enquiries related to this project and for further information regarding the nature of this industrially- sponsored studentship.
