Project Officer in Spintronics research

A Project Officer position is immediately available in the Spintronic Device Laboratory, SPMS, NTU. The project officer will be involved in a bio-spintronic devices developmental project; and will also be responsible in the operation and maintenance of a cleanroom Microfabrication Laboratory.

Requirements:

  1. Bachelors degree in Physics, Engineering, or Material Science
  2. Good experimental skills, particularly with equipment setup and electronics
  3. Good planning, organisational, interpersonal and communication skills
  4. Independent and multi-tasking

This position is tenable initially for a contract of 2 years, with the option of renewal. Remuneration will be commensurate with qualification and experience. Interested applicants please send CV to Dr Lew Wen Siang (wensiang@ntu.edu.sg).

Preference is given to Singapore citizens or Permanent Resident of ASEAN origin. Application deadline: 15 August 2008.

Research associate, project officer and PhD/MSc positions are available in the laboratory of
Dr. PHAN, Anh Tuan. The current research interests in the laboratory are to use a combination of physical, chemical and computational methods to investigate and manipulate properties of biomolecules.

Our research goals include:

  1. Noncanonical structures of DNA and RNA as molecular targets against diseases.
  2. Structural design and engineering of nucleic acids and proteins.
  3. Structures, dynamics, interactions and functions of DNA, RNA and proteins.
  4. Application and development of methods, including Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) and other spectroscopic techniques, as well as  single-molecule manipulations, for the study of biomolecular structures and dynamics.

A research program focuses on the elucidation of non-canonical DNA structures formed by G-rich sequences in the telomeres and promoters of oncogenes. This project aims to provide a platform for structure-based anticancer drug design.

Another research program involves the design of new structures of nucleic acids with desired biological properties.

Applicants please forward your CV via email to Dr. Phan Anh Tuan (phantuan@ntu.edu.sg). Only shortlisted candidates will be notified.
