[RASMB] PhD Application

Fri Jun 22 13:00:35 PDT 2007

Dear All,

I want to apply for the Ph.D. position which can be convenient with my
studies.

As it can be seen from my CV, I am PhD student (1st year) allready, but
unfortunately my administrator also who was the head of the Bioengineering
Department, Prof. Dr. Mamed Mustafaev (
http://www.bioeng.yildiz.edu.tr/CV_eng/mmakdeste_eng.html ) passed away from
lung cancer in an unexpecting time which for we are in sadness. More
information depending on the studies with Prof. Dr. Mustafaev can be found
from the article which was also my M.Sc Thesis. (*Journal of Applied Polymer
Science*, V. 105-5, p. 3108-3120, 2007).

I have many experimental studies, especially I worked on the projects with
Dr. Volodymyr Chegel ( Institute of Semiconductor Physics, National Academy
of Science of Ukraine) **who was a specialist on surface plasmon
resonance  spectroscopy
(SPR). Also we are very new at Analytical Ultracentrifuge (Beckman Coulter)
and I would like to improve experiences with the device.
