Five-Year Post (Ref: 1/99)
Applications are invited for the above position. Following a probationary
period of 1 year the appointment may be renewed for a total of 5 years.

The successful candidate will be expected to operate and maintain a 500 MHz
Bruker standard bore NMR. This will form the basis for a new centre for
Biological NMR in Ireland funded by the Wellcome Trust and situated in the
