This project will bring together Drosophila experts at the University of Cambridge (Prof. Steve Russell, Dept of Genetics and Cambridge Systems Biology Centre), the Lipidomics lab led by Julian Griffin at the MRC Unit for Human Nutrition Research\/Biochemistry, University of Cambridge and the Computational Metabolomics Group led by Christoph Steinbeck at the European Bioinformatics Institute in Hinxton to extensively study the lipidomics of Drosophila. The student will grow up a number of Drosophila mutant models related to lipid metabolism, isolate fat pads and perform analysis using high resolution mass spectrometry. The data will be modelled within the Computational Metabolomics Group to identify differences between the mutants, and explore how the Drosophila lipidome is regulated.<\/p>\n

For this BBSRC-funded project, only candidates with a UK passport are eligible. Please email steinbeck@ebi.ac.uk<\/a> if you are interested.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
