Phd Student Virology/bioinformatics

vor 2 Wochen

Bern, Schweiz Universität Bern Vollzeit

The Institute for Infectious Diseases performs tasks in teaching and research as well as in diagnostic microbiology in the fields of virology, bacteriology, mycology, parasitology and serological infection clarification. It is the only university institute in Switzerland that combines all microbiological specialties in the field of clinical microbiology under one roof.

Project

Influenza viruses can infect multiple species, including humans, pigs, and various domestic and wild birds. Pigs are particularly important for interspecies transmission since they can serve as “mixing vessels” for generating novel pandemic human influenza A viruses (IAV). During this project, we will monitor and characterize IAV circulating in pig and human populations and combine genomic, epidemiological, and microbiological data to investigate IAV evolution, transmission, and biological and clinical phenotypes in humans and pigs. Under the co-supervision of PD Dr. Ronald Dijkman and Dr. Jenna Kelly, the PhD student will monitor and characterize IAV lineages circulating in pigs and humans and help create a novel biological and computational workflow that can be used to generate a comprehensive risk profile for these viruses and increase preparedness to future viral threats. The project will be performed at the
** Institute for Infectious Diseases (IFIK)** and the
** Institute of Virology and Immunology (IVI**) in close collaboration with clinicians at the veterinary and human medicine faculties at the University of Bern.

**We are looking for** a highly motivated student with a strong interest in emerging viruses, next-generation sequencing, and bioinformatics who would like to work in a multidisciplinary One Health environment. Experience in molecular biology, virology, and next-generation sequencing (wet and/or dry lab experience) is advantageous. The position requires an MSc in bioinformatics, molecular biology (minor in bioinformatics), or a related field. Fluent spoken and written English are prerequisites for this position.

**The position is available from 1 May 2023
