Research Associate - Molecular Virology and Viral Emergence (Fixed Term)

Investigate molecular determinants of viral emergence and cross-species transmission in Suzannah Rihn’s laboratory at the Cambridge Institute of Therapeutic Immunology and Infectious Disease. Study viral and host influences on infection, replication and adaptation using cell culture, molecular cloning and functional infection assays. Responsibilities include experiments, analysis, research records, manuscripts and collaboration. Initial funding covers one year.

PhD awarded or nearing completion in biological, biochemical or biomedical sciences, with relevant molecular biology or virology experience. Viral reverse genetics and infection-model experience are advantageous.
