Flinders University: Novel Platforms for the high-throughput analysis of cell-surface interactions

One CSIRO PhD scholarship of $25,000 p.a. is available to gain an understanding of material - stem cell interactions using novel microarray platforms. This interdisciplinary project will include fundamental experimental and theoretical studies of the influence of factors such as surface chemistry, roughness, topography and substrate elasticity on the behaviour of specific stem cells. Applicants should hold a good Honours degree in chemistry, biotechnology or nanotechnology. This scholarship is subject to approval by the CSIRO. Students already holding an APA or equivalent scholarship can receive a stipend "top up" of $7,000 p.a.

Further information is available from: Assoc Prof Nico Voelcker, School of Chemistry, Physics and Earth Sciences, phone (08) 8201 5338 or at the email address below.
