PhD position, Paris-Sud University, France
April 6, 2009Chromophore isomerization in fluorescent proteins of the Green Fluorescent Protein family : modelisation by molecular dynamics and Brownian dynamics simulations.
Description : PhD position Subject : In the Laboratoire de Chimie Physique, at Paris-Sud University, we develop experimental and theoretical approaches to clarify the kinetic models describing the photophysical properties of fluorescent proteins such as the Cyan Fluorescent Protein and the photoactivable Dronpa. Fluorescent proteins are widely used as in vivo fluorescent markers. But a better understanding of their properties could help to design new variants well adapted to new imaging techniques. The research subject proposed concerns the theoretical study of the chromophore isomerization inside the protein which appears as a key factor in fluorescence decays, photoconversion and pH effects. This work will require developments of methods and programs adapted to the modelization of rare events in large systems. Firstly, the equilibrium free energy difference between the different chromophore isomers will be determined by thermodynamic perturbation methods. To obtain the isomerization barriers in the ground and first excited states, an appropriate matricial force field of EVB type, taking into account charges variations accompanying the chromophore torsions will be developed. Finally, biased molecular dynamics and Brownian dynamics will be combined to calculate the constant rate of isomerization. This data will help to quantify the role of isomerization processes in fluorescence decays, obtained by experimentalists in the lab.

I am Tilashwork Chanie Alemie from Ethiopia. I received BSc. degree in plant production and dry land farming (PPDF) at Debub Unuversity, Ethiopia in 2005. Then, I worked for two years in research institute as a plant breeder. Now I am going to complete a thesis paper in partial fulfillment of the masters degree in Integrated Watershed Management and hydrology to get the degree in May 2009 from Cornell University. Thus, I am strongly interested to up grade my level in any relevant field to my background.
Thank you so much for your genuine help to get the access of this scholarship!

I’m UMMA HABIBA . I have completed my M.A. degree from chittagong university, Bangladesh. My subject was Philosophy. Now if I get a scholarship i’ll study more on Philosophy.
Dear / Sir
I am an Ethiopian having LLB with CGPA of 3.57. Currently I am in Oromia institute of justice and professionals training and research center as a trainee. I also have another BA degree in foreign language and literature (English Education) together with six years of teaching experience from elementary to preparatory classes. Yet I want to upgrade my educational level to second degree (LLM) or any second degree related to my field of study Because I strongly want to play a role in solving the problem in the administration of justice up on returning to my country. But I could not upgrade my qualification to LLM due to shortage of money. Because I used my resources exhaustively being a family man snatching from the mouths’ of my kids during my first degrees study. Therefore, I couldn’t stretch my hands farther to help myself. Please would you help me in realizing my dreams?
With best regard
