PhD Scholarship in animal influenza viruses (Due: 15 March 2010)

The aim of this PhD project is to study the pathogenesis and molecular biology of influenza A viruses in animals with focus on swine and birds. The focus of the research will be on host range determinants of influenza A virus including detailed studies of the impact of genetic shift and drift.

The main task will be to establish a plasmid system which will be used for the study of specific mutations in selected animal influenza A viruses. The PhD-student will develop and validate two different in vitro systems which involve molecular cloning,
transfection of cells and maintenances of primary cell systems.
