SCILLS - The Scottish Institute for Cell Signalling
SCILLS is dedicated to the study of how biological processes are controlled and how they become deregulated in disease. The Protein Ubiquitination Unit is the Institute's first research Division. Its major aims are to advance understanding of the role of protein ubiquitination and related modifications in cell regulation and human disease, to facilitate the development of drugs to treat diseases caused by abnormalities in this process, to generate reagents and improve technologies on which more rapid progress in this area depends, and to train the next generation of scientists who will advance the subject.
We are now recruiting for PhD studentships to start in 2010. Information on the available projects can be found here. Please click here for how to apply. The closing date is 30 October 2009.
