4.学校或单位地点
美国 亚特兰大 (Atlanta, Georgia). GSU is a major research university in the southeast region of the United States. The Department of Chemistry is a rising star in the nation that runs a strong research program with annual extramural funding exceeding six million dollars, with a hundred Ph.D. graduate students and about 30+ master students as well as 36 postdoctoral associates. Atlanta, which hosted the 1996 Olympic Game, is a metropolis that is fun to live, with year-long comfortable weather and numerous international supermarkets scattered throughout neighborhoods in the city. As the main hub and headquarters of Delta Airlines, it is easy to get around to anywhere in the world, too.
5.提供的补助待遇
Full stipend support (按学校规定发放). Our graduate students enjoy additional supplemental support to their stipends from our research grants.
6.导师(课题组)介绍
The Liu Laboratory is a well-established group in the metalloprotein chemistry and biochemistry field. The current lab crew consists of 5 American students (1 black 4 white), 1 Japanese, and 4 Chinese (all are newly admitted in 2014 – we have just graduated four) students, a postdoctoral associate, and a visiting scholar. Within the past 12 months, the Liu Lab has received three major federal grants (one NSF and 2 NIH). Thus, the laboratory is undergoing a significant expansion. We invite outstanding undergraduates or master students to apply for financially fully supported graduate positions (up to 4 in 2015) to pursue a Ph.D. degree. Our laboratory is also actively searching for outstanding postdoctoral associates. We perform molecular, structural, spectroscopic and cellular biology studies, with emphasis on protein chemistry and biochemistry. We study transition metal-containing proteins and their biomedical relevance, using a combination of chemical, biochemical, structural and spectroscopic means. The Liu Lab is well-equipped with the state-of-the-art instruments and has a very charming environment. Please visit our web page at: http://Feradical.gsu.edu.
7. 学历及资质
Chemistry B.S. degree with outstanding transcripts – all chemistry areas are acceptable. GRE (general) is required. TOEFL score should be greater than 90 (although the cut off line set by the university is 80, our average is around 95). 雅思 is acceptable (>7.0). Master degree training with research experience is a plus but not required.
8.联系方式
Please contact Dr. Liu at Feradical@gsu.edu for further information.
All inquiries or letter correspondences will be responded.
