PhD fellowship: Campylobacter vaccination of poultry (Due: 28 February 2010)

The fellowship will be part of a larger, international research project focusing on the development of a cost-effective vaccination strategy against poultry being colonised by Campylobacter using different vaccine candidates and delivering systems.
The project consists of four work packages, where the first three focus on experimental challenge trials with three different vaccine candidates in three different countries. The fourth work package, which mainly involves this PhD program, deals with the biostatistical design and analysis of the challenge trials, design of field studies and the development of a decision tool based on commercial interface software for design of a vaccination strategy.

The software work will be done by a commercial company as collaborator. The decision to use a vaccine will be based on assessment of the efficiency of the vaccines as well as management factors in different poultry industries. Field studies will
be main part of the PhD work.
