    <![CDATA[*Ph.D Position in Computational Biophysical Chemistry*

A four year Ph.D fellowship is available in the faculty of Chemistry at the University of the Basque Country, San Sebastian, Spain. The Ph.D. project will make use of computational methods to investigated several issues in epigenetics that involve DNA-protein recognition. In particular, the driving force that governs the selectivity of hemi-methylated DNA by the regulatory protein UHRF1, as well as, the base flipping mechanism associated with this interaction. These studies will utilize molecular dynamics simulations and several techniques in free energy calculations. The candidate should have a Master (or an equivalent) degree in chemistry, physics, biology, or a related area, preferably from an EU country. The starting date of the position is flexible.
