Available Positions
Graduate Students
We are always looking for highly motivated graduate students at the MSc and PhD
levels with an interest in structural biology, biochemistry, pharmacology, live
cell fluorescent imaging and Ca2+ signaling dysfunction in disease.
Post-doctoral Fellows
We are currently looking for Post-doctoral fellows with an interest in gaining multi-disciplinary
training in structural biology, cell biology, biochemistry and pharmacology. This candidate’s project
will focus on the structural mechanisms of Ca2+ signaling systems by applying solution
nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and/or X-ray crystallography with the ultimate goal of
discovering new drug targets for the treatment of prominent diseases such as cancers and heart
disease. The incumbent will be expected to have completed a PhD in biochemistry, biophysics,
pharmacology or related discipline. Further, the candidate must have demonstrated the ability
to work independently and can expect to be involved in the design of the research experiments,
manuscript writing, training junior personnel and potentially grant writing.
If you are interested in any of these positions, please send your CV and a statement
of research interests to Dr. Peter Stathopulos
