-'''PhD position in Structural Biology at the Biozentrum (University of Basel, Switzerland)'''
+put text here
-''Goal'' : '''Structural and mechanistic characterization of artificial metalloenzymes'''. Introduction of a catalytically active metal moiety within a protein scaffold affords artificial metalloenzymes that catalyze a variety of organic transformations. With the aim of understanding the mode of action and further optimizing such man-made enzymes, X-ray crystallography has proven valuable.
-''The candidate'' : The ideal candidate has a MSc degree in chemistry, biochemistry or physics, and a strong interest in structural biology. Good communication skills in either English or German are expected. Knowledge of protein crystallography or enzymology would be an advantage.
-The work is a collaboration between the groups of Prof. T. Schirmer (Biozentrum, [http://www.biozentrum.unibas.ch/schirmer]) and Prof. T. Ward (Dept. Chemistry, [http://www.chemie.unibas.ch/~ward]).
-----
-The position should be filled until end of January 2009.
