The technical skills acquired by the student during the PhD will encompass cloning, heterologous overexpression, purification, crystallization and structure determination by X-ray diffraction methods. Electron microscopy and further biophysical and biochemical methods will be considered in order to better characterise the proteins and their complexes.
