  (BBSRC DTP) Isothermal Amplification for viral detection
University of Manchester Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health
  Dr S Jones, Prof P Vallely
Application Deadline: 31 January 2019
The need to develop better techniques capable of improving detection of viral infections, whilst also improving the assays associated with identifying suitable antivirals is of upmost importance.

  MRC DiMeN Doctoral Training Partnership: How interferon defends the brain against viral invasion
Newcastle University MRC DiMeN Doctoral Training Partnership
  Dr C Duncan, Prof S Hambleton, Dr D Rico, Prof W S James
Application Deadline: 21 January 2019
Contrary to the perception of the brain as an ‘immune-privileged’ organ, it is now clear that the brain engages a potent immune signalling network to defend itself against viral infection (encephalitis).
