The MPL is a user facility open to applications from any research group interested in learning more about methods associated with membrane protein strucutral biology. The laboratory operates in a similar way to a synchrotron beamline, with users visiting for periods of a few days up to several months, depending on the project. Users can also make repeat visits to the MPL, depending on what their project requires.
Applications are reviewed by the MPL Scientific Advisory Board.
How to apply:
There are two routes through which to make an application. Either way we recommend that you contact Dr Andrew Quigley in advance to discuss your proposed projects requirments.
The MPL is not currently able to cover the cost of users travel and accommodation or full consumables costs and we will ask for a contribution towards expensive consumables.
